I went to the dentist today for a cleaning. You’re saying, “Hey, this is a cancer blog, not a ‘what did you do today’ blog!”  But I promise, it’s related; bear with me!  My next dental cleaning appointment was not scheduled until September. But during Chemo 101, I was told not to go to the… Continue reading Yay. An early visit to the dentist.
