As many trips to the dentist that I’ve made with my Mom, they should name a chair after her. Once seated, they know they have to have an extra pillow for her head. Her dentist is so kind — and she’s a problem. Not by choice, of course, but she is the proud owner of a dental implant that she’s unable to get any information for.
Her previous dentist had a stroke and their office was closed. According to state law, her records should be available, but the email address provided to obtain them just sends an auto-reply and nothing happens.
It appears we’re close to a solution (one screw is required and they aren’t available at the local hardware store), but the process has required a lot of patience from her new dentist, a lot of chair time for her, and a lot of trips for me.
That obligatory selfie…

Not sure if Mom is just that happy to go to the dentist, or if she just enjoys being with her daughter. 😎
Every time I share these I cringe because I’ve still not learned to sit back from the camera so my head doesn’t look twice the size of anyone else’s when taking a selfie.
Now you know: In September 2011, the state of Texas abolished all special meal requests after condemned prisoner, Lawrence Brewer (the guy that chained James Byrd Jr. behind his truck and drug him until he was dead in 1998), requested a large and expensive meal but did not eat any of it, stating he was not hungry. Since then, the prisoner’s last meal is the same as that being served in the Huntsville Unit cafeteria on the day of execution.
