Hi Guys, it’s been a couple of weeks now and my creative juices are starting to come back slowly. My recovery is coming along, I’m just anxious to have my mouth unclamped. My family keeps teasing me that I can start a new career as a ventriloquist.
I will say that the first week was really hard. I had to go back to the hospital the day after I was released for dehydration, vomiting and an adverse effect to my pain medication.
I often hear stories about people who wait in the ER waiting room for long periods of time before they are admitted, so I was worried on my way back to the hospital that I would have to wait. Well, they took one look at me, and how swollen my face was, that they took me right back. I think I sort of freaked them out a bit. I looked like I had a softball stuffed in each cheek. I didn’t know my face could swell up that big.
The good news is that I don’t have to worry about becoming addicted to the pain medication. I discovered that I get really sick if I take narcotics. Now I’m just gutting it out with Tylenol and Motrin.
Also, I wanted to pass along a couple of coupons that are burning up my e-mail in box.
First is a great coupon for Gap, Banana Republic and Old Navy. From August 1-3 you can get 25% off your purchase and 5% of that purchase will be donated to Dress For Success.

Hi Bethy1810 and Stacy,
Thanks for the well wishes. Things are coming along fine. I’m just getting really anxious to have these bands removed and for the feeling to come back in my lower jaw. Nothing ever moves fast enough does it?
