tonight
day two
daughter
wisdom teeth pulled
and she's all swelled up
bad
and my heart hurts
for her
how is it that I feel her
pain
I do
I'm not just saying that
I do feel it
deep inside
like a damn channel of pain
and I look at her brave and
trying so hard to be in
control
and I know that she hurts
and
it hurts
me
and they say that tomorrow
is
the worst swell day
and I say
bite me
this is it
we are on the road to
wellness
now
we are on the road
to
friggin
better
and
that
is all I have to say
about
that
because frankly
I
can't
take
anymore
and really it's not about me anyway
after all
she's the one
the one that
got her friggin
mouth cut up
damn

really
I'm about sick of this
maybe even
sicker than her
maybe

Oh brother I remember how painful it was when I had my four wisdom teeth extracted. Hurt for a week afterwards. I don't remember my mom being too supportive though. She was more like, "so what". You are a good mom Josie.

Make sure your daughter exercised her jaw by opening her mouth wide on a daily basis. I was so afraid of tearing open my stitches that I never did that and my jaw locked up on me from not stretching the muscles out.
