A visit to dentyst

Today I visited a dentist.
For many people that is not a big deal...
But for me, that was a big deal...
For three months I had a toothache.
Some days it was less, some days it was stronger...
There were nights when I could not sleep...
And a couple of weeks ago, on my birthday I received some money and could finally arrange this visit.
When you are young, when you are 17, 20, even 30 - you could have a sleepless night, then sleep a couple of hours - and everything is fine. You could fall down from three and after 10-20 minutes have no pain... But when you grow older, things are changing.
In Russian, there is a joke: - "if you're older than 40 and you feel no pain - than, you are dead".
I am 43 now. I have chronic bronchitis. I have some problems with my waist - I can't care things heavier than 15 kilos and two toes are almost always in discomfort...
So, since today I can at least, eat without worrying and sleep without pain...
Praise God!
I am really thankful both to God and to the people, who helped me to solve this problem...
I could sleep enough, to care for my big family during the whole day.
Now I could say to other people - if you can walk, sleep, eat without pain - praise God!
And also, help people to get necessary treatment!
Today in Ukraine thousands of people are just surviving. Visiting any doctor is an unachievable luxury for them...
My treatment cost 42,5$. For some people, it is not much. For others it is.
I know a single mum, who lives with three kids and gets only 55$ monthly...
So, compared to her, our family is rich...
May God give health and generous heart to all, who are reading this post!
