Say a little prayer

Tomorrow (Friday) at 9:00am I am getting my wisdom teeth taken out. Two of them are halfway through and the other two are under the gums and will have to be cut out. I will have IV sedation, thank goodness. Jim is taking me and will bring me home. Then my sweet nurse sister Anna will be here to take care of me and watch the kids. Thanks Anna! You are the best!

I'm dreading it, but everyone I've talked to says that it really isn't that bad. My friend Erin had hers taken out today and I chatted with her on Facebook and she seemed fine, just numb. I made my Gigi's baked potato soup tonight and have it in the fridge for tomorrow when I feel like eating.

If you have any tips for a quick recovery, I will greatly appreciate them! And, if you think about it, would you mind saying a prayer for me? I will greatly appreciate them, too!

Don't over-do it. I did that, thinking I was in need of little, to no, recovery time and suffered.

Be more wise than I was! :)

I am praying for you. I had mine done sveral years ago, and really the pain wasn't all that bad. It's just yucky having those bloody holes in the back of your mouth. I hope you aren't in too much pain. PLease let me know if there is anything I can do for you.

Praying for you Ashley! Had mine out as a senior in highschool. Just relax and take it easy and do try to do too much too soon. That is great your sister will be there to take care of you and the kids.
Praying for a speedy recovery.
