Hang in there Bill.

I put it off for a long time (I am 59 yrs old), but once I decided (I have had my braces for 3 1/2 months), I saw changes that made me SOOO HAPPY!!!!

My problem was crowded teeth, so I had to have 4 teeth pulled to make room for them all. No sweat.

And tonight I am going to my 40th (or would it be 41st:>) high school reunion, and am feeling a bit self conscience. But I decided that there is nothing wrong (and everything right) with being the best person one can be...

and that's what I intend to do :>)
