Thank you everyone for the support..the Dentist's office just called to confirm tomorrows appt...I did not cancel it...the supportive words and sincere suggestions are helping me move forward with treatment, I even called and spoke with the Military Patient Advocate of the Dental clinic last week, and finally talked it over with someone, he was very caring and concerned and validating, not once did he question or assume it to be my fault somehow..which is always what I jump to first...He even gave me further suggestions on approaching this new DMD I will be seeing about the Trauma...so with all of this, while I feel very apprehensive, I can at least make it to the Appt..thanx again everyone..

((Petunia)) Hope your tooth is feeling better too!!!
