Time to ponder

I have had a very painful tooth over the weekend. I managed to book a dentist appointment for this afternoon. Then it all got a bit complicated. 
The dentist said he thought I had a cracked tooth. The options were: root canal work with a crown or take out the tooth. I said I would pick the extraction. Then I needed to consult my Oncology team. Due to a variety of factors I now have a booking with the dentist for 7th May.
In the interim I have to take paracetamol for the pain, antibiotics for a possible infection and chemotherapy for the usual.
I was feeling sorry for myself. Then we were told our favourite publican had died of a heart attack this morning...
