Then you can make your plans as to what you have to do. I remember when I finally came thru after the implants, my Dr was sitting by the bed and so was BarbT. He said I want to tell you 2 something right now. Stay away from Jim's mouth and that includes kissing for at kleast 6 months , maybr longer. LOL Maybe that's why she moved out. He scared her.
