Fist Pump of Victory! 2 Days Post-op

I did it!! Recovery has been difficult...having to re-learn how to swallow with my new airway configurations. Taking medications is frustrating because I have only feeling in my upper lip and tongue, they make me nauseous. They didn't have to do any work on my chin, so that is a plus. They did have to use 3 types of bone graphing. The surgery was scheduled for 5 hours, but it only took them 3.5. They said it couldn't have gone better!

This is all I have energy to post right now....under all this swelling I'm still smiling :)

  1. Yay!!! I've been waiting for you to write, hoping it all went well! It seems like it all really worked out for the best! Best of luck and show us some post-op pics when you can (no rush though!)

  2. I'm so glad to hear the surgery went well! You can re-acquaint yourself with food once the swelling goes down...there will still be plenty to eat!!! Enjoy the peace of silence and relax while you heal.

    Thinking of you,
