I have another update as my mom returned from the dentist today and he does not want or feel it it necessary at this time for her to undergo the surgery. He shaved down the bone and he wants to see if it will heal without any further surgery. He consulted my moms ENT and they agreed that we will see what happens next before she will have the surgery. The dentist does not feel that there is anything suspicious in her mouth and wants to try to let the area heal on its own and see if the pain will subside.

My mom only had one pain pill today and says that it is already starting to feel better so you can only imagine the relief that I feel right now.

Thanks again for all the prayers and comments. They helped me so much.
