Krikri...not to far away and it will be here before you know it...right before Christmas too...ouch...no fudge for you.

Spiral...are you counting down the days...it's only a few short weeks away. I'll be anxious to hear how your both progressing post surgery. Any nervousness setting in yet?

So what are you all doing to prepare yourselves??? I just purchased a few Zip N Squeeze bags for both pureed and liquid that's all I've done so far.

Well... I actually ended up having my appendix out this weekend! So I'm not sure where that leaves me with jaw surgery... going to give my OS a ring tomorrow and see what he says.

I'm really looking forward to the surgery, but I'm not looking forward to not being able to eat a great Christmas dinner

But oh well, I'll make up for it as soon as my 5 weeks of liquid diet are up .

Spiral, I'm sorry to hear about your appendix. Hopefully everything can go ahead as planned with the jaw surgery. Keep us updated!

I can't believe December is only 2 weeks away!
