E got her teeth work done and we were so upset that she had to go through what she had to go through. She was really brave and the first 2 days were agony for her but she's all smiles and running around today.

She had the procedure done at ST. Christopher Children's Hospital. Initially, I was a little nervous because I knew where the hospital was located. It's not in a very good part of Philly. I was envisioning a run down and crummy hospital. I was tempted to ask the dentist if we could to go to Children's Hospital of Philly instead, but I didn't. We arrived to st chris and I was pleasantly surprised. i can be so narrow minded sometimes. The hospital was really nice and the staff that took in E was wonderful.

I got to see E high on Valium. She was hilarious. I wished I had a video camera to capture her silly behavior. I hope that is the last and only time she's ever high on anything.

Thank you so much for your thoughts and prayers. it really was a comfort to us.

oh, i'm so glad that everything went okay, and E's smiling again. you're so funny about her valium experience. :)

yeah, st. chris is a nice hospital, although driving there can be kinda scary. that's where c worked for his first 3 years of residency, so i remember well those drives esp at night. wow, that seems like such a long time ago...
