Shane was given pain killers and will be scheduling a surgery hopefully on a Friday in Sept so that he will only miss 1-2 day from work. He will have the following done.
Large piece of his jaw and gum in the front along with at least one tooth, maybe two will be removed. They will take a section of jaw from the back of his mouth near his wisdom teeth and put it in the front. The medical recommendation is that he will also need an implant but the insurance may not cover that due to high cost so he may end up with just a bridge.
They will not need to do any cutting on the outside of the mouth so that is a good thing.
I will take that Friday and Monday (if needed) off with him and get him to and from the appointment...he will be totally knocked out for this baby!! He will probably be eating applesauce, pudding, and baby food for a few days.... poor guy!!
BUT NO CANCER!!
Thank you so much everyone for your prayers.... they have been answered once again!!
