The Light At The End Of The Tunnel

March 21, 2007- 25 1/2 Months- Had an appointment today. Got to experience a newbie tech as well... She was much gentler than the old hands there. Took her a little longer, but that is how she will learn. :) Today, I had my wire activated and powerchains added to the top 6 to 6. He also wire-tied a couple of non-conformists and asked to see me back in 3 weeks. Noticing that my appointments are getting a little closer together, I asked him the dreaded question- "when are they coming off?!?" He said some time this summer! :) Now, I know that is still a pretty vague answer, but for my ortho that is a major event. It made me see a light at the end of the long tunnel, that's for sure. So I go back in 3 weeks for another activation and then again in May for a longer visit. :) I know it's been a while since I posted, but I have a lot going on right now and the visits I've had since November have been somewhat uneventful. I now have to double up my elastics- a pain that I didn't know exsisted....lol.
Next Appointment- April 11th... for Activation.
May 9th... for repositioning of a few brackets and whatever else he decides to do.
