When Steve was helping M floss his teeth the other night, one of M's fillings popped out. No pain to M, just a hole where the filling used to be. Steve asked one of the Springtown managers, who has four kids, for a dentist recommendation and learned that the manager has a cousin who is a dentist and whose practice is five minutes from our townhouse. Katherine, the dentist, was able to see M this morning. She quickly cleaned the tooth and filled the cavity, in much less time than it has ever taken a dentist to fill one of my cavities. Steve and I were impressed with how good she was with M. Before we left the States, I scheduled an appointment for M with his regular dentist for a cleaning and now am glad for the timing.
After the appointment, Steve went back to work and M and I filled our day with postcard writing (M), cleaning (me), and a walk to the playground at St Columb's.
We also learned that M will be invited to a birthday party this weekend. He is excited to meet some kids and to play laser tag.
