TOOTH PROBLEMS

Delight was not feeling well on Tuesday but she came to work anyway. After fight the flu last week she developed another problem over the weekend an abscessed tooth. Terry Joe took her to the dentist on Monday and they scheduled her an appointment to have a root canal on February 6. Tuesday she was in a lot of pain with the tooth. She told us that the pain pills were not even helping. She knew that she could not wait until February 6 to get some relief but she wasn't sure what she was going to do.

Wednesday she had an appointment with the doctor in Dallas. His office called her last Friday and told her that the test results that he did were the same as the results that she had already been given. It was the negative type of breast cancer that only 1% of the people have. She was disappointed in hearing those results. The doctor told her yesterday that he wants to do all kinds of scans on her before they decide for sure what kind of chemo that she will be taking. She was scheduled to take those scans in Texarkana Feb. 11. He is hoping to get those scans done earlier than Feb. 11. I think that he was going to be working on getting those moved up today. The doctor in Dallas was able to get Delight into a dentist this morning so Terry Joe and Delight stayed in Dallas last night so that they could get that tooth taken care of today. She had an appointment this morning at 8:45. She said that they were both exhausted last night.

If I hear anything else from her today I will try and post again.
