Rescheduled x2!

“In two days I go for my impressions” – which is what I said in my last post dated October 7th. And what day are we on now? the 22nd! Yeah! So this is the story.

We get in the car to head off to the dentist for impressions. We’re about 2 minutes into the drive and my phone rings. UGH!! I just KNEW it was a cancellation. So I pull over and answer. Stephanie says… “did you take your sedatives yet?” I had said no that we just left the house. She said she hated to do this but that Dr. Nirav wouldn’t be in.  Now the reason was perfectly legit, not some man-flu thing. LOL… Anyway, his two daughters (age unknown) had witness their cat being mauled by their neighbours pitbull. So the kids were mortified, devasted and having SEEN such a gruesome thing… sure, I’d stay home with my kids too! We rescheduled for the following week.

That week comes. Monday, I’m house cleaning and normally out of range where I’m working. I happened to get into a range where I get a signal and my phone tells me I have a message. It’s Christine telling me that she so apologizes for having to do this but could we reschedule the impressions for Wednesday instead of [tomorrow]. Reason being was that the mould stuff used for my impressions were “used” up by another dentist and they had to order more in and it hadn’t arrived yet! OMG, are you kidding me?  So I say no, I have to wait another week, I have clients and schedule them around these appointments. She sincerely apologised for the delays knowing how anxious I am to get this all done and over with.

Anyway, I spent a bit of time with her on the phone and we scheduled in Tuesdays for every week up until a week before xmas. So right now we are still currently at the previous post, lower impressions. NOW… I’ve also decided to try the impressions with 1 sedative instead of 2. I’m gonna take 2 with me but only take 1 when I get there and if I need to, or feel I can’t deal with it, I’ll take the other one. With that pill, the nitrous and my lower gums being completely numb, I should do fine with the impressions. I’m shit-scared but…. I’m doing it for Lyn. She hates it when I’m so out of it that it scares her to leave me alone. So I’m gonna try it.

Ok, so fingers crossed that I don’t get a phone call tomorrow morning cancelling. I’ll be so upset if they do. Seriously!!
