Guest guest Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 , I'm glad you're feeling better. One day at a time is all you can do. And from the looks of it - each day is a little bit better! As an aside ... you have beautiful hair!

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 You look great! I know that your head feels like a basketball to you, but I can honestly say that your swelling doesn't look that bad at all. I hope you continue to have a smooth recovery, and that your breathing problem gets corrected soon. That must be horrible. > Hi everyone, > > I just posted my pre-op and post-op pics through today Day 7, I'm > feeling much better about my new look, even with the major swelling > still and the crooked nose.

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 Thanks, I know I'm getting off lucky in the 1st week swelling dept, but to me, it's huge...yeah, the breathing sucks....if I don't take sudafed, I get postnasal drip like crazy, but if I do take it, it dries me up so bad I start having a dry cough....I can't win:-(. Oh well, thanks anyways! > > Hi everyone, > > > > I just posted my pre-op and post-op pics through today Day 7, I'm > > feeling much better about my new look, even with the major swelling > > still and the crooked nose.

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2005 Report Share Posted July 23, 2005 Hi Dee, I went to look for your pics in the photo section, but didn't find them under Dee or . Could you edit them to include your first name? I don't think people can find them. Hugs, Fran > Finally posted some pics post surgery! I looked drained, but I'm > really not. I feel great!

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2005 Report Share Posted July 23, 2005 Hello Fran - Dee's pictures are easy to find - they're listed under " dpwilson2182 " . Dee, honey, you look really good in your pictures considering you've just had surgery and all. Can't wait to see more pictures of you as you continue to recover and heal. Take care and I'm sending you warm healing vibes your way! ~~ Diane > > Finally posted some pics post surgery! I looked drained, but I'm > > really not. I feel great!

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2005 Report Share Posted July 23, 2005 Thanks Diane. I was amazed at the swelling this time. When I had my palatal expander I swelled up a lot and bruised. Nothing this time compared to last. I feel great and have since the day of surgery. The worst part for me, I think, was the anticipation before surgery. The surgery seemed easier this time around for me. Maybe I just expected the worst and got the best? It doesn't matter to me, as long as things continue to go on track One thing post surgery that was upsetting was the breathing, but I've gotten over that hurdle. That was very scary, but luckily it didn't last long. We've taken more pictures and I will get them updated. Thanks for the warm healing vibes...they are working > > > Finally posted some pics post surgery! I looked drained, but I'm > > > really not. I feel great!
