Four Months

Wow, four months have come and gone, it's amazing how long ago it seems I was wired shut and filled with spit and slurp. =)

I switched sides of the bed for sleeping and that seems to help the pain in the mornings. It was very bad for a while, even emailed the doctor, but told him I'd keep an eye on it because with the new side I have had a lot less pain.

I ate a corn dog today. I couldn't fit the whole thing in my mouth but I cold tilt it up and take bite, that was nice. =) I can eat almost anything now I guess if I just take my time. Occasionally I will get a pop in my jaw that's painful, but during the day, other than the numbness in my chin and lower lip I am doing alright.

I see my orthodontist on Wednesday and my surgeon in November. Until that time, there's not much else to report.

I wanted to get some progression pictures done in a slideshow just for myself, but there it sits at the bottom of my never-ending to do list. =)

Luci June starts Pre-K tomorrow, so maybe once I get her settled I will have some free time in the coming weeks. What ever will I do with myself?

Blah...

It's been a while since my last update. I don't really know what to say, I'm discouraged.

While my bite went back on track, the pain in my upper joint is, well, painful. I wake up each morning in pain, after a night of tossing and turning and jaw popping. I'm hoping this is permanent, but who knows.

Just blah.

Thanks for your prayers and support.
