Ok, now you all know I have had more than my share of hurdles to jump over the past few months (years). Well, today I got MORE bad news.

I have had some jaw pain over the past few days and found a new dentist. Last time I went was in 03. I brush vigerously with a sonic care toothbrush and floss all the time.

Well the dentist did a full exam this morning and I need a TON of work. I asked why when I take as good a care of my teeth as I can. He said with my medical history some of the medications I have taken cause the teeth to deteriorate. To look at them they look find but I need crowns on many of them and fillings on others....to the tune of $18,000!!!!!!!!!

we have dental insurance but that doesn't cover much as you may know, major is covered at 50%

Man, this 39 year old body feels like it is done. Obviously I am going to do what insurance covers and hope to make payments on the rest. Anyone have $10K I can borrow? KIDDING!!!
