Tooth News


Hi Folks
Well it is high time I spent some time on our blog. Especially since we won't have internet access at Rumginae at least for a while.
Last week saw Morgan develop an abcess, due to her damaged tooth from earlier in the year. So we were able to get her in to the dentist at SIL which was a huge help as it was only an hours flight and I could do it. We were able to spend an evening with our MAFC friends who are there serving with SIL.
The dentist said he had never seen anything like Morgan's mouth. So after some deliberation, study and a consult with a dentist in the US he went to work.
So another kid with a root canal and the abcess cleaned out, teeth braced again we are back praying the tooth will still take and she won't need a fake tooth so soon.
Will keep you posted.

Last night I didn't make it home as planned, late in the afternoon too much weather between me and MT hagen and not an overabunence of fuel meant I needed a back up plan so I went to Mt Bosavi (see previous posts). I was well received and they made sure I had a good dinner and a clean bed. It was a great opportunity to be with them and build relationship. This morning with the weather better it was a much easier trip home.

The plan is for us to move Wed to Rumginae, I will fly the Airvan and Sue and teh kids will follow in the Twin Otter loaded with all our stuff.
Should be unpacked and ready to start flying the following week.
Will be in touch.
