You are a very good writer....Hi, I love your blog. You are a very good writer. <br /><br />About that tooth - I have a recommendation. Before making an appointment with a dentist you might want to consider first trying the Crest white strips with advanced seal. I have a non-vital central incisor that was very dark. I asked my dentist if it would respond to over-the-counter tooth whiteners and he said no because the stain was on the inside. I could not afford the bonding or whatever it was he wanted to do so I thought what the heck, I'll try the white strips just to see. I cut off little pieces to fit just the one front tooth. Left them on all night. Took it off in the morning. Get this - in just 4 days that non-vital tooth was just as white as the rest of my teeth. No, I take that back. It was actually whiter because the dentin inside had sclerosed and thickened after the playground accident that darkened it in the first place. So its opacity made it appear whiter. It bleached up really nice and I am so glad I tried the white strips. Saved me a ton of money. <br /><br />Good luck to you and thanks for an awesome blog.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11698107553518175107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7558528804236989500.post-6833482903672303542009-12-22T03:10:43.683-05:002009-12-22T03:10:43.683-05:00Great story as always!

I had a similar conversation with a patient except she was a little old lady with a killer sense of style who insisted that I must paint my ghastly nails. She was not impressed that I was proud of the fact that they were clean. <br /><br />I do feel saddened by how she ended up in your ER though.Mahahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04860979377398925052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7558528804236989500.post-33407892864089044772009-12-20T20:21:09.972-05:002009-12-20T20:21:09.972-05:00"I'm not sure I could let some stranger c..."I'm not sure I could let some stranger caress my scalp and hair in this manner." <br /><br />Oh GOSH ..I COULD! I've loved having my hair played with since I was little!!<br /><br />No way would she get near me with scissors though!<br /><br />I was briefly trained by a transgendered person when we went to a new system. Lovely person. It took me a while to figure it out ..but I wasn't familiar with that stuff and just knew that even though dressed really well ..perfect hair, makeup and nails and shoes ..it was all off in some way.<br /><br />Dressed to the nines,nothing like candy in personality, but most professional and yes..very large heels and very tall.<br /><br />Great post!<br /><br />Story .. as I was reading this post..i was thinking that you have been writing about some interesting patients and they would all be great characters for a book if you could tie a story together... which I have no doubt you could do just that. :)<br /><br />I'd buy it! :)SeaSprayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07906503090688697222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7558528804236989500.post-4130524203980547182009-12-20T13:42:19.448-05:002009-12-20T13:42:19.448-05:00That story is priceless.

There will always be patients that we will remember for one reason or another. <br /><br />Your Candy is a character...and adds some spice to life...and Candy seems to me to be the kind of person that finds the bright side of things...and just enjoys life for what it is.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your story....oh and your comment on purgatory....I haven't heard that word since I graduated from catholic high school....they loved that word.....Smalltown RNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08806734351278128551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7558528804236989500.post-36816979314790930732009-12-19T02:01:59.120-05:002009-12-19T02:01:59.120-05:00Lord how that takes me back.

She was an amazing and funny person. <br />I had to read her chart to be sure she was a transgender, because she was all woman to me.<br />We spent hours on the phone dishing celebrities and politicians. It was a long time ago. I still think of her and miss her.<br />What a treasure she was. Treasure Candy too.Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11827236343578670299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7558528804236989500.post-50175304910817858142009-12-18T21:24:23.017-05:002009-12-18T21:24:23.017-05:00Oh honey that is Faaaaaaaabulousssssss!!!!

No local needed. If you can find a dentist in your area that does Lumineers, Veneers or even a composite covering, you'd be perfect in no time, for Candy's next visit. That's something that is easily fixed.<br /><br />Love your blog btw.Chrysalis https://www.blogger.com/profile/00757696627388704079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7558528804236989500.post-24907319211606042402009-12-18T13:08:45.480-05:002009-12-18T13:08:45.480-05:00Love your Blog ..Love your Blog ..Sue Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16206371847410436244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7558528804236989500.post-16226340241491270522009-12-18T10:20:24.925-05:002009-12-18T10:20:24.925-05:00What a great story, it's nice to see that Cand...What a great story, it's nice to see that Candy is treated like a person.
