I will call this, what happens when you don't listen.

Many years ago. Around the age of 12 or so. I went to the dentist, first time. I was told then that I had a baker's dozen of cavities (13). Which meant I had to take a city bus every day after school to go get these cavities filled. I hated every minute of that trip and the time when the dentist worked on my teeth. His hands were so big and I remember him saying open up MORE. Now the point I am trying to make is. If you have not been to the dentist in a while. Please go and get what ever needs done. The reason is you might end up as I have at this point of my life.
My sister, her hubby and myself went out to have a nice dinner. I got a steak and while chewing, boy what a surprise. I must have hit a bad spot. Boy did that hurt. I talked to a friend (Bill) and he told me about this dentist that has big hands. I called and made appointment and was told it was $75.00. I went and boy he was a tall man. His hands could hold a basketball, with no trouble. He looked and told me I have three options.
1) Pull the bridge off and have a root canal - $1000.00
2) If the bridge breaks there is another $2000.00
3) Cut the bridge and pull the tooth plus the fate tooth too. Then there will be a hole there.
He only charged me $45.00 that alone was a blessing too.
So after leaving him I talked with a guy from Calvary that is a dentist and he said pull it it the cheapness way. - $250.00 plus
So I got back here at Nassau and saw my dentist yesterday and we came up with. Next Tuesday, pull the tooth. plus the fate one. -$175.00 Then down the road get a plate and have two teeth attacked- $550.00 to $1200.00
So please if you think of me during Tuesday or when ever. say a couple of prayers. I really STILL DON"T LIKE GOING TO THE DENTIST.
Oh I have had work done before this happen.

It really neat to watch our new school being built right here on the same property that the old school is standing.

This was the first part of putting up the walls (Oct. 29th) at our NEW WESTWOOD HIGH SCHOOL. Our Principal, Mr. Alfonso tells us that all of...
