Oh, edit: I forgot to say, I was given a starter pack which is a nice little blue bag containing information leaflets, soaking solution tablets and polygrip!

The teeth are such a good fit that I've had problems removing them, and so did the dentist today, but practise makes perfect.

Uncle Joe: I had steak pudding and managed a few chips for tea, so I'm improving.

WhooHoo Mollie darlin' - great news!!! We'll have you eating full fry ups with Black puddin' and all very soon now!!!!

PS, now that you have your new gnashers and the treatment is complete, we now want a full piccy of you Mollie darlin' of you smiling and showing us your shiny new gnashers.

No black puddin' for me. I may be a Northern lass, but there's no way I'd eat that.

Sorry, no picture either. I'd have to get my hair done and put some slap on. Maybe one day though. It's not easy to look pretty at age 63.

No worries Mollie we can wait, but beauty comes from the inside so a few wrinkles and no lippy wouldn't make any difference to how we see you...

Thank ye kindly Sir Barry, but it's how I see myself.

I don't have any wrinkles, except a few laughter lines around my eyes. Give me a few months to get used to my new look, then maybe ......

Sorry chuck. I'm not even doing mirrors yet, so a camera is out of the question right now. You have to understand that I have a very low esteem right now, but I will build that back up, and who knows .....

I'm still trying to come to terms with losing my teeth which I honestly never thought would ever happen to me. I can't eat properly; I'm having trouble speaking properly; and despite my dentist's best efforts, I don't feel like me yet.

I'm sure that anyone who has been through this will understand it, but if you haven't, you can't.

Everyone has been so kind to me, which I really didn't expect, and you've all helped me through these hard times in different ways, so thank you all once again.

When I can afford it I plan to have my hair re-designed and when I feel good about myself again, I'll have a photy taken and put it on here. Good enough?

Fair enough Mollie darlin' - we'll hold you to that - perhaps a piccy of you next Spring sitting on a swing with a broad smile on your face.

Re: Teeth

Mollie, it's quite understandable you need time to adjust to your new change, I can't even begin to understand what it must feel like for you at the moment.

Never mind the photo, you don't have to post one .... just concentrate on regaining your confidence and feeling better about yourself again.

Re: Teeth

Thank you Mags for being so understanding. I'm still not able to eat properly and this is a bit of a torment for me because I'm not able to chew like I used to.

I'm gaining a little more confidence when I'm speaking to people now and smiling again, and I sometimes forget by putting my hand over my mouth, but I am definitely getting there.
