Feeling Feeble.

I've coped with a lot since I was widowed 3 years ago including selling my house and living on my own in rented accommodation - but I'm having a wobbly about having a tooth out. The thing is my OH would have come with me, waited outside, been sympathetic etc., made a cup of tea when we got home. I feel really feeble about this. A friend offered to come with me but I want to do it on my own. I felt really daft when an 85 year old friend said she had gone on her own, ordered a taxi etc., after an extraction.

Congratulations on all the "first steps" you are taking. It must be hard, but you will get there! flowers

Thanks grandMattie - I still have one tooth to come out but I'm having a little rest for a few weeks.

A friend sent me this quote that I thought I would share.

Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes it's the quiet voice at the end of the day that says "I will try again tomorrow".
