It has been a long while since I posted last, but I have visited frequently and enjoyed all of your stories. I woke up this morning, and realized today was my one year anniversary of my surgery! I cant believe how fast time went. I decided to put up a few pics that showed my begining to end progress, since I didnt really get to before
If you can remember that far back, I ended up having Lefort I, and BSSO. Here are my pics from begining to end...This is where I started...
This is me 4 days post op (holy cow the swelling was crazy!)
This is how my teeth looked post surgery/braces...
The day I got my braces off (I still had swelling in March from my Nov surgery..)
And, here is a recent picture (you can see how much of the swelling has gone away. I still notice it, but its waaaay better than before!)
So yeah, crazy to look back at the year that was! To all of you who are getting ready for your journey, chin up! Its not as bad as you think it is going to be! And for those of you who are just out of surgery, congrats on your accomplishment! You will be back to normal in no time! And finally, to all of you who helped me through my journey, I cant thank you enough! You guys are the best!
Be well everyone!
