My surgery date is January 28th, 2008. Currently as I write this that is exactly two weeks away and I am super excited, super nervous, and anxious to get it done!
I got the letter today that told me what time to be at the Hospital - 5 a.m.! Holy crap that's early. I'm thinking maybe just stay up all night! Why not I'm just going to get knocked out and sleep anyway right? ha ha no. Probably a bad idea, but what's a good idea is letting my dad know he's gotta stay over so he can take me in.
So the countdown begins and as I collect more pictures and proof of this journey I will post them so all can see the exciting details and adventure of my jaw surgery. Woo hoo!

Yay, I can talk!

You're going to do great! It will all be worth it in the end. :)
Let us know if there's anything you need or want at all and you've got it!
maybe you should have a movie party the night before. It would be cool to watch "The Dentist". Maybe a pre-surgery drink?
