Yay week 1 is down ! I get my mouth unwired in 3 days! I am feeling better and better. I am getting more energy too because I am able to have stamina to eat more. It still takes a lot of time and 2 of us to help me drink diluted soups. Today, was my first strange blended food.Well, besides avocado and broth, I wanted sausage and cheesy hash-browns (with beef broth to make it able for me to drink it). It was quite tasty. I am sure there will be more crazy blends. I do miss real food but for now I am doing ok. My swelling has gone down a lot, but my bruising is getting a little more colorful. When I look in the mirror, I don't get freaked out anymore. I was even able to brush a little on the inside of my my mouth with my infant toothbrush. Watch-out, yeah there is one of those little things you take for granted. I also have this plastic splint in my mouth too that food can get into. .It is no fun having a nasty taste in your mouth all the time, but it is getting better. Goodtimes. My back is a little better as I am able to walk and stretch more. I was able to walk outside a little, too bad it is a little rainy here. Also, I am not taking any pain meds during the day. I really didn't think I would feel this good so soon. YAY Thank you JESUS for carrying me through this!
Looking better for sure. Don't be surprised if when you smile or talk your face muscles pull crooked. They have to adjust too.
