Hi, All!
I had posted before that I was to have my mercury fillings removed yesterday (Friday). My husband and I traveled 4 hours and stayed all night in St. Louis to be able to be at the dentist office at 8:30 Friday morning. We got there on time and NO dentist! We called the emergency number and the nurse finally called us back a few hours later and the dentist is in North Carolina. Somehow our appointment was missed! And what is really freaky is that 4 weeks prior we were scheduled to get the fillings removed and they had scheduled us on a day that the dentist was to be out of town at a conference. At that time we went ahead and got all of the first patient tests done on Thursday and we were supposed to get the fillings out on Friday. Anyway, to have this happen two times in a row is really weird! The nurse that got ahold of us yesterday said this dentist has alot of out-of-town people come and this "just doesn't happen"!
Anyway, I do have to say that being a Christian, I believe that nothing is by accident and there was a reason. My husband is going to talk to the dentist Monday and it will be interesting to hear what he has to say and what he will offer to do. The trip to get this done isn't cheap, besides the cost of the filling removal.
I was pretty devastated yesterday, this is emotionally draining, especially since I haven't been well for going on two years and I have so much hope about getting better once the mercury is removed. But after much prayer, I have peace and I know it will be OK.
Anyway, if any of you are praying people, would appreciate prayers that we will have direction, maybe we are supposed to change dentists????
