Yesterday was a unique day.
Other than my daughter's birthday, something happened in my son's school.
There was a mom with two special kids enrolled at them same school as my son. She was always shy but yesterday she talked to me and I learn she has a college kid also.
We are getting comfortable talking when she suddenly sneezed. Something went out of her mouth. I guessed she knew it also but when we found out it was her front teeth. I was not sure if I was going to laugh or cry yesterday but I did not do any.
She was also taken aback by the situation. She told me that she felt those teeth were slightly loose but she did not expect it to fall off with a sneeze. Apparently, her teeth were treated with RC so I think there were more teeth attached. She went to the toilet and came back with teeth back on.
She told me she really wanted to visit a dentist to have her teeth fixed but they do not have the money for that anytime soon.
Having dental issues sometimes costs a fortune.

This reminds me of a writing workshop that I attended. It was break time and I was joking with the president of the organization. One old writer laughed so loud that his dentures fell on the table. You can imagine the laughter in the room. Oh well, there was a little embarrassment but the old man was not really offended.

@rakski since you are still not that close so definitely that is embarrassing. It's just sad that it needs to be fixed but they don't have the money.

@Alexandoy true. it is quite expensive to have dental services. Her kids I think are also having therapies so that might not be a priority maybe until yesterday. I am not sure though

My sister can vouch for that getting tooth repairs is very expensive.

@rakski I agree with you that dentistry work is expensive worldwide.
