Brings back memories when I had a retainer. I didn't lose mine, my brother stepped on it and broke it. Working in restaurants, I've seen so many retainers being thrown away and later the busboy having to go through the trash, because the child hid it under a napkin, but 9 times out of 10 we were able to find it. Two weeks is a long time, that's great your son's mouth didn't shift too much and the retainer still fit. I’m so glad you were able to get the retainer back.

I recall leaving my retainer and glasses at a hotel as a kid and our mad rush back when we had a flight to catch.
