A personal update

Dear Readers,

I want to apologize for not staying up to date with my posts the last couple of days. This past Friday, I had oral surgery and had two wisdom teeth extracted. The original plan was to remove three wisdom teeth, but one of them was surrounded by nerves. Because of that, the oral surgeon didn’t feel comfortable removing it as they didn’t want to risk nerve damage to my mouth or face. The other two were taken out. As grateful as I am to have two impacted wisdom teeth removed, I am a bit frustrated that the most impacted wisdom tooth remains but I understand where the oral surgeon is coming from and I respect that. I think with the removal of the two wisdom teeth will help relieve the pain that I have been suffering for the last year or more.

Right now, the pain is 10/10, and combined with the strong pain medications that I was prescribed and am taking, I’ve been feeling quite nauseous and dizzy. Because of that, my creative juices just aren’t flowing.

Thank you for your understanding and patience while I focus on recovering. I hope to be back to writing soon.
