Another Surgery...Oral this time!

We have noticed the J isn't eating which is never wonderful with this child.  He started wincing when we brushed his teeth a couple of weeks ago.  Both his father and I are VERY hesitant in getting treatment for him because we know they will have to put him under to perform ANY type of dental work.  He is just not one for strangers touching his mouth.  It's getting to the point where J is barely eating his protein shake or even little spoonfuls of yogurt.  So I called many dentists to see if they accept Medicaid that are also on our dental plan. NOPE, none!  Thankfully we do have a wee little dental insurance to help.  They have set out a 3 hour time slot to get everything done in the time frame.  Whether it be filling a cavity, pulling teeth...whatever...it's got to be done in the 3 hours.  We go on Thursday and thankfully it's during our Spring weekend break.  Hopefully there won't be complications, but you never know with J-man. We are just hoping whatever has made him stop eating will be fixed, so we can then address the pains in his stomach that he's been complaining of recently.
P.S. Things are still looking pretty good in his gadget area.
