Poor Baby


I hope you don't need wisdom teeth to be wise. Like many, many other young adults Nate has started his Christmas break with a visit to the oral surgeon. He finished his finals on Wednesday and had his teeth removed Thursday. He had all 4 of them removed - 2 were impacted and 2 were just breaking throug. He also had a sinus cyst removed from his sinus cavity. I saw that and it was pretty gross.

Interestingly enough as Nate was under the knife, or laser one of his friends walked in. He too is a student at Hillsdale College. Then, when we got back into Hillsdale, I ran into another friend and his daughter is going in on Monday for the same thing. And finally one of my girlfriends called me, and her daughter is having hers removed on Dec 26. I guess if I was going to pick a new profession I would pick oral surgery; there seems to be money in it.

I sure hope he is feeling fine now! I remember that experience like it was yesterday. I had blendered mac and cheese and hotdogs for days.
