Today is my 9th Birthday! One of the things I told my Mom that I wanted is that I can help even more people with my blog so I hope my wish comes true. Already we have over 12,000 hits and remember, I always check every so often to answer your comments.
Sarah, who recently got her palate expander wrote in to ask if the turns get any easier. Well I think I can say that they do because it is something you kind of get used to but it still hurts. Remember, every day that you turn it, is one less day. That is what I kept thinking or at least my mother kept sayiing to me.
Another comment came from Caroline who said she has a peanut stuck in her palate expander and can't get it out. It was written a couple of weeks ago and I am sorry I haven't written sooner. But, I think by now you know that now you know you cannot eat ALL foods, an dmaybe peanuts are somethin gyou should avoid. My dentist had told me to stay away from nuts and popcorn and hard candy and of course gum.
I am proud of all of you for going through this with your palate expander. You are doing an awesome job and you should be proud of yourself.
Please tell your friends who have palate expanders abou tmy blog. I would love to be able to help them too.
have a good day.
yoru friend
