3. Sending you best wishes and hope thinks work out whichever way you go.

I had a serious piece of work that I had to have done twice. First time without the drugs that made me unaware of what was going on but I did have Novocain. I felt really weird pulls and tugs and scraping. Second time I asked for drugs. It was a pill when I arrived. Next thing I knew it was over and I didn’t remember a single thing! No ill effects of being out of it either. Apparently I spoke a bit during the procedure but had zero memory of it.
