Guest guest Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 Hi david, The unwiring part was fine, I feel so much freedom now. I have to say, I was miserable these past weeks, well, close to two months, and today, I feel like a huge weight was lifted off of me. when I was wired, I really felt restricted to do anything. I was afraid driving, and I wouldn't hold my neice, (she was born just 3 weeks ago, but I was still scared.) I went to see her today, and held her, and fed her, so I am so happy it is unreal. I am really looking forwars to christmas now, I just hope I can clean my teeth a little better so whenI talk to people they won't pass out!!!!!! > > > > Hi, I just want to share that my wires were removed today.
