Guest guest Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 Hello everyone, I have made it to the other side. My LeFort 1 was yesterday morning - Tuesday, February 1st @ 7:20am. I got home about an hour and a half ago(2/2 @ 5:00 PST), and I am starting to swell so I need to get ice on my face ASAP! I finally looked in the mirror. SCARY! My OS told me early that I looked wonderful... he lied to me! My face and banded teeth are hideous, but I know it is temporary. My 5 year old sweetie boy said " I don;t like your fat face mom. " He is not very happy right now. He also lost his appetite. My daughter who is 17 1/2 has been doing a wonderful job taking care of her brother. My bosses are wonderful. They came to pray with me before surgery, visited me after surgery, and then took my to my OS after leaving the hospital, and then to my house. They also gave me a teddy bear, flowers, and a lot of goodies (movies, magazines, pj's, stuff to drink, and LOTS more! I work for a wonderful employer... Harvest House Publishers... they are the BEST... #1. My OS said that my bite looks " golden " " perfect " and that he is " very pleased. " I sure hope it is that was once the swelling goes down. Well, I'm gonna go for now. I just wanted everyone to know that I made it through surgery. I also want to thank everyone for this support group and the wonderful information that I learned to prepare me for this surgery. Thank you all... especially Cammie and Fiddlesticks who are extremely wonderful! ~ Swanson Brownsville/Eugene, ORegon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
