More Issues To Try To Deal With

like i really needed more issues to deal with and try to handle. isnt that great? my daughters father took my daughter to the dentist on wednesday, and they did her cleaning and xrays and told him that she had 5 cavities, i was of course at work, so i wasnt there to say anything. but supposedly she has all the cavities in her adult molars, so those arent baby teeth, and she needs them, so they have to get filled. which wouldnt have normally been a problem if she had normal dental insurance, but hers isnt normal. they only cover silver fillings, which like no offices do anymore, they only do white. so because that office only does white, the whole thing would be not covered, and total with a discount for all the fillings it would be 950.00. which is incredible, that isnt something that i can afford, even if my ex paid half of it which he would. the only way would be for me to wait and take it out of my tax return and then there goes the money that i save for emergencies and unexpected things. so i spoke with her insurance, and they said that she has up to 800.00 per year in benefits, after that they cover nothing (and with the cleanings and xrays that probably used at least 300.00 which would mean that she probably has 500.00 left). so i found a dentist that does carry both silver and white fillings that covers her insurance, and that "sometimes" does silver fillings, and i made an appt with him for weds and i am leaving work early so that i can take her and deal with it, cause i am not leaving it up to my ex to do this time. and i guess that we will have to take it from there and see what happens, they said that she gets another 800.00 the beginning of july cause that is how the year runs, so i dont know if i am going to have some of it done now, if he will even do the silver fillings, and then have some done after july. i havent figured out what i am doing yet with that. i am not that happy about making her have cavities in her mouth til july, when the insurance gives her more money. i am just going to have to wait and see what happens. now i am concerned because i dont even know how she could have gotten 5 cavities and she is 6 1/2 years old, she isnt even 7 yet. and i dont give her candy, cakes, or cookies, very rarely does she get anything like that to eat. and i make sure that she brushes her teeth, and i go over it after her. so i dont know. i do know what i wasnt that good with her getting her teeth cleaned every 6 months or whatever it is cause she didnt have insurance for it, but i wouldnt think that would do it. oh well. i am going to have to start getting better with her and my son about it as much as i can. my son needs to go to a dentist and have his teeth cleaned and everything, so i tried to call his insurance and find out where i could take him, and i was given another number to call to get dental providers, and i called that number and was put into someones personal voice mail to leave a message. it seems like nothing can ever be easy for me. geez. so now i am sure that i am have to go chase them down to try to get a dentist for him to go to. and i have to get myself in to a dentist too, i am trying to locate an office that has saturday hours, so that i dont have to take more time off work. i need my cleaning and i would like to have xrays done off my mouth, cause i am sure that i have more things wrong with me, cause i still have pain in my mouth on and off which stinks. i am taking a lot of time off work as it is, i am leaving early this monday afternoon, so that i can go the doctor and have this cough and lungs thing that wont go away checked on again and also of course i am leaving early on weds to take my daughter to the dentist. but what am i going to do? i have no choice. i tried to find a dentist that had saturday hours for her, but i couldnt find one that had saturday hours, took her insurance, and still carried silver fillings. so what else could i do? my daughters health comes before everything for me, same with my sons of course.
