Praise the Lord for hearing our prayers and granting our requests! Aslan's dental procedure went well, and he has quickly recovered from the effects of the sedation.
We are especially thankful for the favour of being able to have the procedure done here. Initially, we wanted Aslan's dental work completed in the Philippines when the cavity was still small. However, we were unable to get medical clearance due to his recurring rhinitis, and the costs were prohibitively high.
When we arrived here, the cavity had worsened, and Aslan began to complain of tooth pain. We consulted a dentist who recommended seeing a sleep dentistry specialist to address multiple issues at once. However, our insurance would not cover expenses that would exceed $1,000.
Thanks to the support of some people from our church, Aslan could enroll in a government program for low-income residents. We paid literally nothing for the procedure.
