Off for the week

Work was busy so I am grateful to be off. Tuesday I woke up with a throbbing tooth. The dentist got me right in and today I see the dentist that fixes roots. I won't get the root canal today, just the exam. But I started on antibiotics so although the pain is now centered in my jaw my face hasn't swollen up much and I can live with it. Why the jaw hurts I don't know. Course Rick in his usual pessimistic way assured me my cancer was back and in my jaw..... gee thanks Rick for instilling that small but nagging thought in my mind. Sheesh. When I first got the cancer there he read that if it spreads it can go to the parotid gland and the bones so he has been on the look out, LOL. I reminded him..... Clean margin. I was surprised actually that he is still worried about it.

Now it is later in the day and I have seen the specialist. My roots look OK so that's not the problem. And he also says if it doesn't settle down with the antibiotics and motrin I should see my regular doc. To make sure the cancer hadn't spread. Think he has been talking to my hubby, LOL. I think I must have bitten down on something wrong. My jaw still is a little sore. But I am not worried about the cancer being back. Sheesh, always something.

It is suppose to be wonderful out today and I am off. I want to ride the bike and get some new pictures. Then tonight we are going to the comedy show. I think it will be the last one until this fall. It should be fun. Plus, the community photo challenge is flowers and I have a few shots I want to get. The woods are full of purple flowers. The other day the sun was going down and in there were 2 deer standing chest deep among the flowers with the sun filtering between the trees and playing on their backs. It would have made a great shot but I was running late for work. So today I hope they come back so I can get the shot. Since they are here everyday it shouldn't be difficult but getting the light right, that could be the problem.
