my partner is in need of prayer again -- root canal
Two months ago, I made a prayer request:
Having upcoming surgery is manageable, and recurring neck pain can be manageable, but putting the two together might be a real problem. I hope you can make a little request that she can get through the surgery without one of those conditions compounding the other. Thank you.
She got through that and the surgery was a success, but now we are coming up against the exact same issue again, except this time it's a root canal. The neck pain (which she is working toward getting an MRI for, but that may be a ways off yet) may make it difficult or impossible to complete the needed dental procedure. We don't know. She's getting a physical therapy treatment on her neck a couple of hours before the dental appointment, which might help. But she's been in pain all day, and would really appreciate a prayer so she can hopefully get some relief, get the tooth taken care of, and make some progress on managing the longer term issue. Thank you very much.
