Dad's Operation

こんばんわ!

Dad's mouth had been hurting for a few days, causing him to lose sleep and his appetite. So, after much prodding (with a ten-foot-pole equipped with a very sharp end), Dad finally relented and saw our family dentist. Dr Tai said that after extracting a tooth, Dad's jaw went berserk and decided to pile on a heck of a lot of calcium. It caused a buildup of jawbone that poked up through Dad's gums, causing the excruciating pain.

So, Dr Tai suggested Dad see a proper doctor to have the bone filed off. Dad and Mom decided to see the doctor at the Loh Guan Lye Specialist Centre today. I didn't go, because it was supposed to be a check-up before the doctor decided what to do.

I spent a couple of hours at home, watching TV and napping while my parents went to the hospital. After a few hours, Dad and Mom came home. Dad looked exhausted and very dishelved.

Me: Wah! What happened to you?! Got caught in a tornado?
Dad: *shakes head*
Mom: It's the operations fault.
Me: ..........
Me: The op is OVER?! o.O
Dad: *nod*
Mom: Yeap. All done.
Me: I thought you were just going to have it looked at! COOL! So he hacked off the extra bone with a hammer and chisel?
Dad: -__-;;

Now, Dad has to bear the post-op pain. He'll have to eat porridge for now, until his mouth heals.
Mwahahaha... It'll be so much fun to torture him by chewing delicious food in front of him.

Now, excuse me while I torture my Dad... *evil cackle*

Dad looking mighty miserable post-op
