Thank god for my mensch of a dentist for help on New Years Eve...and my wedding anniversary

tomorrow (37 years!). I have ominous tooth pain and called his office. Dr. R, who is on vacay but called me from FL to help me out with prescriptions for an antibiotic and painkiller phoned into my pharmacy today! He's doing a crown for me in January and I absolutely love the guy. He helped me on the day, Jan. 6, when I called, crying from the shock of the riot in Washington. His assistant held my hand (patting it gently) as my extraction happened. I will never forget their kindness and understanding.

I am lucky to have such a great (and caring) guy, a strong Democrat who plays 70s rock music while he works. I was rockin' to the oldies in his chair...

Cherish that dentist! Especially for helping you long distance while he’s on vacation.

That’s someone who really cares.
