Guest guest Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 I went into hospital to see my consultant for the first time in three years now I have decided I do need to have surgery on my jaw. The first thing he said as I entered his office was, " I don't know if you'll remember me, three years is a long time! " " Of COURSE I remember you! " I replied. Mr Harper is the wonderful man who, when I was having a nervous breakdown over looking like a freak when I first saw him, said " Mira, you're a good-looking, healthy, young woman. This isn't as bad as you make out! " And with those words I immediately felt 100% better. Sadly now I can't avoid the inevitable any longer and it looks like I'll have to go for braces and then surgery. Today they took X-rays of my jaw and booked me in at the surgeon/consultant/orthodontist clinic in September. This is where you have all THREE specialists all peering down your mouth! It's enough to make you floss for life. So today was the first " official " step on my jaw journey. Next update in September! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
