Another day in Bed

​Its Thursday and I am still in bed. Went to the dentist since there was not any changes in the swelling. I do need a root canal. My first thoughts were to just dope me up good to kill the infection. The Dr was not thrilled with that idea but gave me 2 strong antibiotics plus strong pain meds and recommended that if the infection flared up again, I needed to go home or find a dentist wherever I was. I thought, I could do that! Then my x-rays were sent to my Dr at home. They agreed that it has a lot of infection, and that it would be best to get it done asap. So, tomorrow I go for consultation and if he feels it's safe, he will do the surgery. 

Plans are that if all goes well, I will get a train to New Orleans Saturday night, take couple days off healing and letting my mouth settle then will start riding Monday to finish the ride. 

I am very thankful that I am at Calebs. God knew I needed to be here. So… I’m lying in “my” bed, just counting my blessings and ready to get this over and back on Ruby. 

My "Get Well" spot - Thank You Caleb!

Can't wait to get back on the road
