As you can see in this pic, he was still droopy & will be swollen for the next few days! SAD!
The dark area inside the circle is all infection that was taken out.
Brock was suppose to fly out yesterday but do to having major infection above one of his front teeth he couldn't. Flying would have killed him with how much there was. The bad part, his tooth already has had a Root Canal done on it. Good part, we got it fixed but it required some minor surgery to do so. We took him to the Endodontist & they did what is called an Apicoectomy. Once he was numb they took a blade & cut about an inch across the front of his gums then pulled them up or what we call "layed a flap." Then they got out the infected tissue & drilled a huge hole in his bone to get to the root. The Dr. said that there was so much infection that it was eating away at his bone. It will take at least 6 mnths for it to fully grow back because of that. After that he went in through the end of his root & packed some stuff in it. Then they closed him shut with some stitches. I felt so bad watching them do this to him. It was awful! He is sore today but nothing like he felt with his toothache. All in all, things are moving forward. He flew out this morning to work for a week before he comes back to move. I'm sorry you had to go through that baby!

Oh gosh that sucks!! I don't know how you can watch that stuff! I would have passed out. At least he got to stay one more day :)
