Went to [[red underline]] Dr. Wielage [[/red underline]] who undertook operation on my [[red underline]] lower jaw, [[/red underline]] scraping hard matter from roots of my lower teeth, detaching the gums, then sewing them up with threads around teeth. 
All this to stop further invasion of alveolar penetration of hard matter. This is a [[red underline]] very laborious operation on which he prides himself. [[/red underline]] Preliminary injection of [[red underline]] Novocaine [[/red underline]] in the gums prevented any pain. Altho' he hurried as much as possible all this [[red underline]] took about 30 minutes. [[/red underline]] Mean time have to postpone putting of my Luxene outfit of [[red underline]] Misner. [[/red underline]] Gums much inflamed and bleeding Felt rather tired after the ordeal and tried to sleep after returning home. But an [[red underline]] increasing pain [[/red underline]] developed as soon as I was home Finally phoned [[strikethrough]] him [[/strikethrough]] after 4 hours, to [[red underline]] Wielage [[/red underline]] he said take 2 tablets [[red underline]] Aspirin [[/red underline]] etc. This stilled the pain after a few minutes and next day. Shall [[red underline]] have to live on milk, eggs and soft food [[/red underline]] until gums get normal which will take about a week at least. Got my colored photos of myself from Burdine's.
