good news, bad news

The good news is, I'm not a hypochondriac.

The bad news is, those two sore teeth are sore for a reason.

The good news is, it doesn't look like the decay on the back one has reached the root.

The bad news is, we won't know until we take the old filling off and get in there.

The good news is, the front tooth is not cracked above the gum line.

The bad news is, it is cracked and will need repair if I'm ever going to be able eat ice cream, drink a cold drink, or smile in the winter.

The good news is, I live in a country that offers me solutions other than "live with it" or "let's pull those suckers out."

The bad news is, by the time we pay for the two repairs, I might as well live in a third world country.
