#1411 Sunday 27 November

Gee that tooth is a bad one.... it has pierced her cheek and it's really hurting her.  We're giving her regular painkillers.  I just hope we can get some treatment quickly.

Today I was up at 5am while the rest of the house slept till 9am.  I was able to get many tasks done.

Now it's nearly 7pm and she's wanting the bedtime routine.

8:30pm ..... I spoke too soon..... the tooth is giving her too much pain and she can't sleep.  She's been crying since 7 despite all the painkillers.

There are no emergency dental services!  The major hospital used to have one but it has been closed to cut costs.  The current plan is to try and survive the night and take her to the GP in the morning.  Our only other option is to take her to a hospital emergency department .... but this is extremely bad for her so it's not an option we would willingly choose.
