Big day for Alegra! She got her braces off. The day didn't go exactly how she planned though! We went into the Ortho at 8:00 a.m. this morning. They said she would be about an hour and 15 minutes so I left and ran to my gym that was 5 minutes away. Right when I was about an hour at the gym and just wrapping up I look down and there are messages from Alegra saying she threw up everyone and I needed to come now. I raced back and she was in the chair still getting work done on her mouth but her sweatshirt was off. When they were taking the impressions of her teeth to be able to make the retainer she was gagging a bunch and then all her breakfast came up. The poor girl working with her had to keep the impression in so they could get the mold but there was throw up all over. Then we found out because everything that was happening the impression didn't work. Luckily the Dr. was sympathetic to Alegra's gag reflex and he took a 3 D picture and is going to send out for her retainer. With all of that happening we had to go home and Alegra had to take a shower (because there was throw up in her hair) and get ready again. I thought I was going to have her to school at 9:30 but it turned out to be 11:20. Oh well! Her smile looks beautiful though!
