stupidity

That would be in reference to me.

Having not learned from my vision debacle, I now face dental disaster.

Let me explain. Generational vision issues run in my family. Thus, faithfully, I annually trekked to a specialist, until…. so engrossed in caring for my mother, I neglected myself, resulting in eye surgeries and loss of vision.

You would have thought I would have learned from this lesson, but no….

Having visited my dentist and dental hygienist faithfully every six months (almost) for many decades, my diligence slipped & now I am facing not only periodontitis, but bone loss, which will include special treatments and quarterly visits.

I am left with two possible conclusions:
1) Being closely related to my canine cousins, the old adage applies, “you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.”
2) I have a future in Public Service Announcements.

I leave it to you to guess which I have chosen.
