I hope that it all works out well. Just don't give up on the teeth----leave them in all the time so you get used to them, like a great pair of old shoes.

That is a good idea for cooking with things that you like, but can't chew well. Best of both worlds, you are not hurting yourself by trying to eat what you have trouble with, and you are not depriving yourself.
