Well, shizzle.

Actual language in my head may be a bit stronger.

Emily woke up within the past hour or so with the post-op pain suddenly much worse. There's serious question about whether she'll be able to go back to school, and work, tomorrow (when it would be ideal) or even Tuesday (when it's kinda essential).

Eleanor's off to the pharmacy for some more clove oil- a nonprescription remedy she's sworn by for years. Em, meanwhile, is back on Planet Lortab and praying to avoid the meteoric side effects of that.

I have no frame of reference for this; I was subjected to the once-common orthodontic "four on the floor" procedure when I was maybe ten, with the promise that it would "make room" for the wisdom teeth. Indeed, it did; but it didn't "make them come in straight" or "make them easy to clean," and thus, all four turned into cavity magnets that got painlessly extracted in my forties when there was little left of any of them.

If I could turn back time, and share this pain, I would do so in a nanosecond.
