I started this blog to keep folk up to date on my husband's melanoma treatments. I have kept up daily blogs for 15 1/2 years…sometimes health related...sometimes just daily routine. June 16th Woody took his final breath in his long health battle. I have blogged for so long that it is part of my daily routine…so I guess I will continue with posts from me about how I cope with this new stage in my life…widowhood.

A First For My Dentist!
At a lull in my 1 1/2 hour dentist appointment, I asked the dental assistant to hand me my purse. I wanted my camera to take a photo for tonight's blog! I said to my dentist, "I'll bet that is a first!" And, he admitted that he had never had a patient request to take a picture before! I survived my dental appointment...but it must have taken something out of me, as I slept most of the afternoon and into the evening! I had made our supper before going to the dentist this morning so all we had to do was heat it up tonight. I just heated mine up and I'm having quite a time eating. I'm still chewing on only one side to make sure that the temporary crown is set. Well, the tooth is a back molar and I can't chew without biting my cheek on the side that the work was done on...ouch! I imagine that my cheek is swollen due to the shots, work done in that area, and/or I bit it while it was still numb. Anyway...supper isn't all that enjoyable! Woody walked eleven miles while I was having my dental work done. This afternoon he slept some too (anyway he was asleep before I went upstairs for my rest). He seems to be having a sinus problem which is making his teeth hurt (perhaps in sympathy with me?). So he took some benadryl and the result was a normal benadryl reaction...being sleepy! He is getting ready to watch the first game of the NBA basketball finals.
