This week's adventure has been Felicity needing a tooth removed. On Sunday, she complained about having a sore tooth, by Monday morning half her face was swollen. An urgent trip to the dentist (luckily our friend Jacqui was able to recommend one) confirmed that she had an abscess. Felicity enjoyed the fact that she could watch TV while sitting in the dentist's chair. She left with a bottle of antibiotics, intended to reduce the infection (and to reduce the pain when the tooth eventually got taken out). On Tuesday her face was even more swollen, the poor thing, so Lucinda put in another call to the dentist and got an emergency appointment for Wednesday morning.
Today (Wednesday), Felicity paid a short visit to the dentist in the morning, followed by a 5pm appointment to have the tooth removed under anaesthetic. The actual procedure was quick and smooth with Felicity just being very woozy when she arrived home. She's now picking up and we're all looking forward to Poppa and Grandma Bertram arriving late tonight. We hope we don't have too many of these sort of adventures.
