yah baby!! I survived!! woo hoo! Not only was it a very non-painful afternoon (just a couple of painful moments), I only lost 4 teeth, and got 3 temporary fillings! Wow, the dentist and people at TBCC dental clinic rock! The freezing was out about 2 hours after is was done, but it's not too bad for pain. Thank goodness for pain killers! Now if I could just get the last 2 extractions to stop bleeding, I'd be one happy guy. Ah well, my last cycle of chemo starts in the morning, so only 4 more treatments at the PLC and I'm done. I'm looking forward to the next few days as I heal from the dental work.
Next Johnism: Live for the moment, but be prepared for the future! (And have lots of fun doing both!!!)
Well folks, the next big step is here. I get 7, yup 7 teeth yanked today in 2 hours. I am looking forward to getting it done and start the healing! As usual, I'll be a bit morbid about it and take a before and after picture! 8-)  Something to scare the kids with next Halloween!! HA!

I'm feeling great, in good spirits, and expecting things to go swimmingly well.
Wish me luck!

talk to you soon,
John
