Then I was talking when they woke me up - which I still don't know if I was allowed to do. :) Hang in there!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3705929594688575199.post-86208906133405768622013-08-20T03:56:36.311-07:002013-08-20T03:56:36.311-07:00Hey Cassie!

But honestly, at that point I just had a pretty bad headache which was soon taken away with a few meds. <br /><br />It's just the fear of waking up and being so unprepared to feel different. The first thing I did when I woke was smile and talk to the nurse and then i slowly touched my chin... I could tell the difference already! I then sighed with relief and lay back down. <br /><br />It's so so worth it, you'll be fine, I promise :)<br /><br />I'm so excited for you xxxSophieLeighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01203448267984187854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3705929594688575199.post-48662322748552981812013-08-16T00:43:00.163-07:002013-08-16T00:43:00.163-07:00Thank you Lou,

But I can honestly ...It's normal to be scared! But I can honestly say none of the recovery was too bad, just kind of tedious. I had my surgery a year ago, and I'm 51.<br />Best thing I ever did, I can breathe, chew, close my lips, and my jaw doesn't crack anymore. <br />The worst part was the steroids, they made me very moody as I came off them. <br /><br />Now it all seems like a blur, and completely worth it. <br /><br />Best of luck to you!Louhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09028396667462414767noreply@blogger.com
