She approached Wayne in the reception area, holding her hand out. He looked bewildered but took her hand, I held his other. “Hi Wayne, I’m *****. I’m Jean’s friend, I’ll clean your teeth today.”

Settled in the dental chair and accepted her offer of a glass of cold water, “But whiskey would be better!”
She agreed several people have requested but not received whiskey.

Appointment went really well.

As she said her goodbye, he moved toward her to hug but then shook her hand instead. It was so sweet. She’s very young and very wise.(What is so interesting to this story is the response of the other patients. Some were perplexed, puzzled, one kind of smiled, most stared. Wayne presents so well that until he has to respond or react, one would probably not catch on that he is ill.

I try to have him groomed and dressed well to present the best image possible.

The receptionists smiled, mostly at our hygienist, knowing what a great lady she is. Once the appointment was over, each receptionist called him by name and wished him a good day,etc. Wonderful place.)
