He went off to work on Monday ok ( he is working away all week) but by Monday night he had developed a bit of toothache, which he duly reported to me by phone. On Tuesday morning he still had it apparently (although it didn't stop him eating!) , so he rang his dentist, and then rang me, incensed because he can't get seen until Monday. The thing is, he is an absolute baby when it comes to any discomfort and wants it sorted instantly. This evening he has rung me to report how many ibuprofen he has taken, and how much pain he is still in. He has however, managed to go out for a meal and whack down a pizza. His plan is now to ring the dentist tomorrow and insist he is seen ASAP.
He has said that "we are in for a grim weekend" .
You may be Mr H, I will decamp to sleep in the spare room I think, let you suffer in peace!
I sometimes get the odd day of toothache, live with it for a day or two and away it goes. If it carries on I go to the dentist. No big fuss. In fact I remember a few years ago I had very bad toothache for a couple of weeks which woke me in the night Mr H complained that I disturbed him. At the moment I have really bad backache, caused by scrubbing the kitchen floor, but haven't mentioned it to him, there is no point, any pain he has is so much worse!
The trouble is, if I raise anything with him, he takes it as a personal insult and gets offended, and consequently sulks for days. Easier to keep quiet I think and feel I'm the better person.
