stitched gums

and so there is the gum graft (#2)

and from inside my mouth,

the place where the graft was harvested

harvested

what a word for this part of the operation

there was lots more blood with this graft than there was with the first

choking on it at times even

altho, truthfully,

I was practically upside down in the dental chair so the surgeon could see what he was doing
and the suction thingy was right there

but the taste....

blech

so now I get to heal

and keep my teeth

keep my health
