Getting to the Root of the Issue

All week long, actually for  three weeks long, she has been nursing a molar which has been very painful. Her dentists have been very cautious in determining the best treatment.

Well, yesterday it happened.  They worked on her for two hours, and she came home bearing pills and a bruised mouth.

I commiserated with her because I have a few bad teeth but won't let anyone touch them.

I hear they will anesthetize me just to look at them. No way.

She started to perk up today, though, and got back to her more energetic activities.

Let's hear it for modern chemistry!
