I'm Molly, a typical sushi, makeup, and fashion loving millennial girl who just so happens to be blind! I was diagnosed with Retinitis Pigmentosa at just 4 years old and began public speaking at age 5. I started just doing motivational speaking, but now I make videos and even model! Even though I can’t see, I know that there are bright spots in everything we face. Let’s find them together. 💕

Have you ever had to get an emergency surgery? Have you had to get your wisdom teeth taken out?

[@viewer0779]

Yayyy I'm first to reply to you!! Yes I had to have a tooth extracted and it was SOOOOO awful! I don't know how you have got through all these major surgeries luv you soo much Molly Xxx

[@hannahhinkley451]

No I haven't but one of my friends did and I had to go with them. We were they for hours, and it was terrible.

[@juliestreitmatter8916]

Molly Burke no I’ve never had emergency surgery! And I haven’t gotten them out yet but maybe soon😖

[@kaitlinshaw8093]

Momma Niamh and Poppa Bee are the most amazing parents ❤️🐝 can't imagine how hard these times were for the whole family. Poor 14 year old Molly going through this whole year, then also imagine having to watch your child go through the worst time of their life. It's amazing the whole family made it through and remained close rather than being torn apart by the difficulties

[@aislingdodgson8132]

[@KTdesign1]

I'll keep my story short because it's so long, but basically I have had just about every single thing wrong with my teeth and jaw structure haha. I've had: a pallet widener, 6 total years of braces (2 separate sets at different times), 3 retainers, 2 permanent retainers, 7 teeth pulled, double maxillofacial jaw surgery + wisdom teeth removal + chin implant when i was 14. Basically, they broke both my jaws and implanted A TON of metal into my face in order so I could actually chew and bite stuff. Before this, only my back two molars would touch. I physically could not chew with my mouth closed because my jaw structure was so screwed. Couldn't bite anything off, the ham would stay in my sandwiches when I tried to bite a piece off. So they realigned everything and took all 4 of wisdom teeth out at the same time, as well as put in a chin implant. Yea, it was hell. Legit was one of those scenes from a movie where they take the bandage off someone's face and they don't recognize themselves. The hardest thing was the pain, not being able to eat, and not recognizing yourself when you look in the mirror. It was terrifying. It took me about 2 years to get used to. Also, I lost 14lbs in a week, because my throat was covered in cankersores, but we couldn't see because my mouth was banded shut and I couldn't open it. Whoops, so much for keeping it short lol. Anyway, took about a year for all the swelling to go down. But that was by far the worst experience of my life. I'd still do it again if I had the chance because I literally wasn't able to function. I'm okay now, but my bite is opening up again. My teeth barely touch in the front again. But it'll never be as bad as before. My damn bone structure is so stubborn!! Even with a bajillion implants it still wants to be wonky lol. Anyway, so proud of you Molly. Teeth/mouth issues are never fun. ❤️💙💜 if anyone has any questions btw I'll be happy to answer! :)

[@KTdesign1]

Oh also I ate/drank with a syringe for about 2-3mo for those of you who are curious. I also had to be constantly on NORCO or else the pain would be worse. Also had to sleep upright and couldn't have my face touch anything...that was SOOO hard for me because I always sleep on my sides and stomach lol. Also used google text to speech to talk to people because I really couldn't talk!

[@Olivia.longname]

Hey! I just had a intra arch distraction to correct my maxillary anomaly! I know exactly what you're saying I lost 15lbs but only had to eat out of a syring for a few weeks. Im going to get some dental implants as well. I hope you're able to treat your problems in the future as they arise and the best of luck to you in your journey!

[@addi904]

That’s a LOT. I’m 13 years old and have already had 7 teeth pulled (not including wisdom teeth). I just hate pulling out my own teeth so whenever they pulled out 5 at one time, it was mainly so my other teeth could grow in so I can get braces. I really hope your mouth got better :)

[@dynamicduo1208]

I wish you the best of luck! Good Vibes only!

[@DesMowadeng]

Hi molly. You might have done this before and it's definitely controversial and you may not want to but would you consider doing a video on selfharming as a disabled person. I'm also disabled and have struggled with self harm and suicide but as someone in a wheelchair. I think the complexity of mental health with a disability isn't something talked openly about.

[@Liz-rf4qu]

I was thinking about asking her about that too, but I was too scared. I'm in a wheelchair too.

[@DesMowadeng]

@@Liz-rf4qu I'm sorry you have to deal with something like self harm or suicide (if that's what your referring to) but truly any mental illness in some ways is different with a disability in the mix. Despite a world that tries to tell us we are no different and then goes out of it's way to prove just how different we are. I'm used to the tough topics as a certified trauma recovery coach so I wasn't scared to ask.

[@lindatannock]

As someone with disabilities due to illness, I think it would be great if Molly brought up that discussion. Depression can be quite common for people with disabilities, and it's different when it's caused by illness. It's very challenging to deal with, particularly in young people. They often don't have contact with other young people dealing with the same/similar issues. 💖💖

[@Liz-rf4qu]

@@DesMowadeng I tried suicide a couple of times. Fortunately I was stopped each time. I got bullied. I guess that's why.

[@aiyanacyr473]

I also would love this! I have a connective tissue disorder along with various other neurological and vascular issues and it had caused a lot of anxiety and depression. I think it’s important to let people know how common these mental illnesses are, especially in those with disabilities so that there’s not such a stigma about going to therapy and talking about their pains.

[@merna1655]

[@spookycloud]

My wisdom teeth removal story isn’t nearly as trying, but it’s kinda funny: I also have a tiny mouth (I’m a towering 5 foot 3 inches), and they had to chip holes in the sides of my jawbone and remove the teeth in chunks because they were coming in completely sideways. I was 14 and had never been sedated before (this was twilight sedation and not full anesthesia, so still breathing on my own), and when I woke up they still had the white sheet over my face that they use to shield you from the chaos going on in your mouth, and I WAS UTTERLY CONVINCED I WAS IN THE F-ING MORGUE. Once I realized I wasn’t, I couldn’t stop crying. Surgeon asked why I was crying and I just screamed, “I DON’T KNOW!!!” Apparently this happens to some folks, as one of the medications in the sedation cocktail basically gives you amnesia and can cause some serious delirium. I was crying down the hall, during xrays, on my way to the car...I couldn’t make it stop. The dental surgery center I went to didn’t do a great job at post-op, either. They had no wheelchairs, so they walked my ass down to the X-ray room IMMEDIATELY after waking me up from sedation (still crying). I passed out once in the hallway (they caught me) and once during the X-ray (they caught me again...still crying). Then a nurse and my dad WALKED ME DOWN THE FRONT STEPS TO THE CAR. I passed out again halfway down and the nurse and my dad caught me (only lightly crying at this point...I think I had worn myself out like a toddler does near the end of a tantrum). I also had to go back two weeks later because once the swelling had gone down I realized there was a chunk of my jaw bone that was left behind just sticking out from where the stitches had dissolved. Yeah, they aren’t in business anymore. I eventually healed up fine, though, and now I ask for benzodiazepines whenever I’m being sedated. I forgot to ask one other time and woke up crying for no reason and once again couldn’t stop, but when I had a heart procedure a few years ago that required twilight sedation I woke up, asked my surgeon how it went, then slurred “awesome” and gave him a high five. I foggily remember him laughing at/with me. 😂 Moral of the story: if sedation makes you nervous or you have a bad emotional reaction upon waking, tell your medical team during your pre-exam and they’ll take care of you. They would much rather have you high-fiving like a happy stoner than sobbing and thinking you’re in the morgue.

[@bellaholland5846]

Spooky Cloud the first thing i did when i woke up was cry i was so sad 😂

[@spookycloud]

Bella Holland IT’S SO STRANGE!!! I was also so sad for no goddamn reason. 😂😂😂 Seriously though, if you ever have to get put under again, tell them ahead of time how you reacted before and they’ll likely give you a happy pill. It’s waaaaaaaay better waking up unnaturally happy.😂

[@theflashgirl2057]

Are you more childish than other persons you know. Just wondering

[@TheSTOPlayer]

You may actually have had them. I have mine but the way my dentist explained it is that because I have a large deep jaw there’s plenty of room in there not from them to cause an issue.

[@thatsort]

I’m 29 and also never got them. Apparently it’s possible for some people not to have them, though uncommon!

[@MonkeysHeartUnicorns]

I don’t have them at all on one side, and on the other side they’re still way down in my jaw and haven’t moved. I didn’t realize it was possible not to have them until I went to the dentist when I was 18-19 convinced one was coming in, and they thought I was lying and had had them removed. 😂

[@HoneyballLP]

OH MY GOD! I feel you sooo much... What a horrorstory. Wow I can call myself soooo lucky, because I was in such a bad shape too, when I got my wisdom teeth removed but all went well. I had to get my wisdom teeth out, because I got arthritis with 16... and they can cause more pain and problems. So my wisdom teeth were chilling fine deep deep deep in my mouth and they had to saw into my jaw to get them out. Also, they found a lost milk tooth and a dead tooth while they were working on my mouth. So they pulled 4 wisdom teeth 1 adult tooth and 1 milk tooth at once. I am so happy, that I was put to sleep for this surgery. We went to a specialist, he was also a plastic surgeon, he did an amazing job. I could not use my mouth for 14 days and after just 14 everything was fine. Like... really OK. Looks like I was very very lucky. In that time of my life I was depressed, way to thin, had besides the arthritis other health problems, I was so lost, bullied, lost all my friends, all I had was pain... It could have gone so wrong. wow... Maybe it was because my immunsystem was overactive. I got my arthritis thanks to that. It was attacking my bones, flesh, eyes and digestive system. That stuff is gone now, but damaged my stomach forever. That year, with all the bulling in school, the illness, the pain, the chaos, University Hospital after University Hospital and doctor after doctor... it is as you said: I am so happy, that it is in the past and nobody should go through such thing. Keep going, you are so strong!

[@morgancloutier5908]

I’ve had three dental procedures before the age of 10. I’ve had a total of 13 teeth pulled with two permanent teeth, a chain attached to one tooth to bring it in correctly, and a frenectomy (the little bit of tissue that holds down the top lip was cut to help my giant tooth gap). I’ve had a cortisol injection into a tendon in my hip with a needle being stabbed into said tendon 30 times before injecting to help it soak in. (It didn’t even work so yay). I don’t know when I’m getting my wisdom teeth out but it’s gonna be soon. Not excited.

I just finished Grade 8 (in Australia we finish our school year in December and then start it in late January or early February). I turn 14 early next year. My year wasn’t as bad as your Grade 8, but I did lose all my friends and the people I had trusted most started bullying me. I became to emotionally and mentally unstable to do anything and couldn’t stand up for myself when I needed to. I stopped eating very much because of anxiety. I’ve always been a very smart kid who tops the class and loves school. I was still smart however my marks (although still very high) weren’t as good as they could have been and I started to resent going to school, I didn’t want people to continue making my life hell. I still feel horrible and can only hope that next year is not as bad. Oh and yes I have had an emergency surgery, I very badly cut my toe (there was only a bit of bone and muscle holding it together) I had to have surgery to get it put back together.

[@evalynn1863]

I'm so sorry you're having to go through that. I know it can seem hopeless sometimes and like the darkness is just consuming everything, but it does get better. In a few years you'll be out of that school and you will get to discover the world as an adult.

It's shitty right now but I promise what you're experiencing is temporary. You got this

Okay so here's my family's thing with our teeth. My mom always had pretty good teeth up until she had me, my brother, and my sister and now they're chipped in different places. But then there's my dad who's always had bad teeth because he never went to the dentist as a kid and all. So anyway I end up with an under bite that I had to get fixed when I was in 3rd or 4th grade, and then my lower jaw has always been crowded and one of my teeth are leaning back a bit, and nearly all my wisdom teeth are sideways(thankfully they have never bothered me). And then my younger brother has like perfect teeth naturally which is incredibly annoying. And then my younger sister has some really crooked teeth and her two top middle ones are pointed inwards. So technically my sister has the worst of all us, I'm in the middle, and my brother then has perfect teeth because that's just how life works I guess lol

[@TheKaitoKIDOtaku]

I'm 4'11. I know the joys of being short and having a small mouth. I've had so much dental work throughout highschool. However, I don't remember the time frame anymore of when things happend. I've had several teeth pulled from both upper and lower jaw because the adult teeth would not come in properly, had a jaw expander expand my jaw by a centimeter, had braces for a while to fix those adult teeth that were growing in wrong, after getting the braces off I got a permanent retainer bar across my bottom front teeth and a moulded retainer for the upper jaw. After that things were good for a few years, and then my wisdom teeth had to get removed. I barely remember the procedure since I did not want to be awake for it, but I remember giggling at the surgeon while I was coming out of the anesthetic because I heard him talking about how I had a tiny mouth and he went 'oh she heard me.' But after all that, I have never once had a cavity.

I still have my wisdom teeth but my dentist and orthodontist told me I need to get them removed in the next two years. I'm hoping to get it done this summer, but I'm really nervous about the anesthesia cause I've never had it before. I really hope I can get just local anesthesia because I would totally freak out if I have to get fully put under. It's the one medical thing I'm terrified of.

[@etaiandayie2772]

I had 2 wisdom teeth removed while on local anesthesia. The oral surgeon said he lost 2yrs of his life because my teeth were TOO BIG AND TOO STRONG. 😅 I broke a couple of the drills I think hahahaha

@@etaiandayie2772 I had to have some of my baby teeth removed previously and when getting the last one done the dentist had to yank on it so much. He prescribed me prescription painkillers that I never took and I refused to stay home for the rest of the day but my parents still made me wait an hour lol

[@carolmurray4276]

My hub had two removed with local anesthetic and was fine. I had all four removed under general anesthetic. I was just super groggy and sleepy the first day and then I was fine after. It’s not too bad and glad I was asleep because my wisdom teeth were in my jaw and they had to drill and dig them out. My hub was using his wisdom teeth as molars but they had to go, one by one. 😪

[@brittanygamber1108]

If I were you I would opt to be fully put under if you have the option. My wisdom tooth removal surgery turned from a 1-2 hour procedure into a 5 hour procedure because they only gave me local anesthetic and laughing gas. At one point I stopped breathing the gas because I was so relaxed, but then I started to feel sensation from the surgery and so I started hyperventilating out of fear. At this point they weren’t even half way done. They had to completely stop, calm me down, re-anesthetize me and start me on the laughing gas again all while my mouth is held wide open. I had lasting lock-jaw problems for 2 years after that due to the trauma all of this caused my jaw from being forced open for so many hours. And don’t even get me started on the recovery process...

I have always have bad, chronic health problems and they really shaped who I am. I can see how strong and relentless you are as a result of this year. As someone with disabilities I’m so grateful for everything you do for people, especially the disabled community. ❤️

I'm so happy i never have to go through this. I don't have wisdom teeth, I'm one of the lucky ones. more and more people don't have them anymore. (I mean like not even existing)

[@danporter100]

Evolution truly is a great thing. My dad was one of those lucky people, not me sadly. I'd like to think that humans will eventually evolve to not have them in the first place if it causes us so much hurt anyway.

Luckily i found you from dr mike video so binged your content. 3 videos have been stuck in my head, the veteran restaurant his situation is similar i felt like i wasn't alone. Then the other one was when traveling alone and no one said about the 2 hour wait, i was pissed i hate flying and get bad anxiety too. If i didn't ask if you were ok or needed any help my mum would find me on the other side of the world and slap me up the back of the head. The last one was i don't know what i look like, that caught me off guard and i just broke down into tears cause i take it for granted. Im 35 and seen the best and the worst in the world and to be inspired by someone rarely happens. Keep up the amazing content and you have helped me in a time that im struggling. Thank you for being so genuine and always wish you the best.😊

I have not had my wisdom teeth out and I’m 23. I have two dentists sort of (weird I know) and one told me I have to get them out and the other said they are fine and don’t need to be taken out, they don’t hurt at all so I’m not gonna get them out.

[@Jade-5713]

Neon777 I had impacted wisdom teeth and whilst they weren’t urgent to be removed it had to be done. I was 22 I think and whilst recovery wasn’t the greatest ( not being able to eat much and some pain ) I survived haha and I’m glad that it’s over and done with.

Dude dont even get me started first off low immune system and I'm small 4'10" and dental mystery of hell, so I have an under bite and a cross bite and I had a male dentist when I was like 9 sit on top of me and yelled at me to say sayonara to my tooth and I screamed at him to stop and the secretary realized what was happening was wrong and told my mom to go back and get me out of there, he broke my tooth in half and I had to wait to see the oral surgeon to have the roots removed.... laughing gas doesnt work for me. I screamed bloody murder purple hippos were falling on my face the oral surgeon had to shut the door I was scaring other patients. I had oral surgery again for my wisdom teeth my freshman year of high school my wisdom teeth because I have a tiny mouth because everything on me is tiny... they literally have to use kids x ray at the dentist. They removed my wisdom teeth that didnt have room to come in that werre poking to break through the gums and another tooth at the same time and they put a screw in my jaw to help with the braces I would get later. I got braces and a pallet expander probably like 2 or 3 weeks later. I had all kinds of elastics and metal bonds on my molars to help with the braces so I couldn't brush those 2 molars for 2 years while I had braces then I got a retainer and I almost had to have head gear. So now the molars that had the metal bonds on them broke I had one rebuilt when I had dental coverage. I now have disability and am on Medicare and it doesnt cover dental so the other molar that is broken would cost about 800 to get fixed out of pocket or get it pulled but I'm all set on being re traumatized so for now that broken molar just sits in my mouth and I have always been good at brushing and flossing and stuff need to get one of those new tooth brushes that has the water pick built in .I disassociate when I get dental work done and I can see myself from above due to trauma.

[@sportsfan9040]

Wow! I"m so sorry. I'm also 4'10". Never had much luck in way of getting xrays. Wish my dentist had used smaller film because my mouth isn't large enough to handle xray films made for adults.

[@rachela1496]

I’m also on disability and have Medicaid. Just found out that I have five cavities, and one root canal needed only on one side of my mouth (they haven’t checked the other side yet). The cause is not hygiene related, but medical issues, and medications that have caused my teeth to weaken over time (which I was unaware of until it happened). My out of pocket cost for just one side of my mouth is upwards of $3,000...with lots of discounts because they don’t accept my insurance.

[@trinityarmstrong4688]

I'm an odd ball. I'm 23 and all of my molars are baby teeth and I never got wisdom teeth in. I'm not sure how or why I don't have adult molars or wisdom teeth but they're literally non existent.

[@callabeth258]

I don’t have wisdom teeth either... I had to get a dental x-ray to assess my TMJ issues and the dentist was like “have you already gotten your wisdom teeth removed?” And I was like no? He was like oh well you must be one of the lucky people who don’t have them! Both my sisters got theirs removed as part of their braces so if it’s genetic I clearly got a different gene there.

[@thryssinstitches9655]

I'm horrified they only gave you T3s. In the U.S they'd have given you vicodin which is much stronger. You needed way more then that. Poor thing

[@personincognito3989]

Everybody has a different pain tolerance and everybody reacts different to analgesics. It's probably a good thing she was given a lesser strength medication because there is such widespread drug addiction in North America so it's good to start with the lesser potency. As a medical personnel I can tell you less is more

[@carolmurray4276]

I received a script for T3 but only needed ibuprofen for the first two days. I was 17 when I had them removed.

[@thryssinstitches9655]

Agreed 100% less is more in that regard. Especially for how long she had to be on them.
