Well surgery was on Wednesday and went pretty much the best it could go. They were able to repair my fractures through an incision in my mouth which was the best option we could have asked for. Once they got inside they also found that my nerve was not severed just pinched between two bone fragments so they were able to repair the nerve hopefully without much damage. They were supposed to keep me overnight for observation at the hospital but the surgery went so well they released me that night after I came to in recovery. The first night home was pretty painful as I was up quite a bit but luckily had my parents there to help with the pain medication and moving around. Its been an interesting recovery as I’ve been pretty swollen and bleeding a lot from my nose. I guess when your body is recovering it completely changes. I didn’t know I could eat this little and sleep this much. Keeping my calorie intake will be a challenge as I am confined to a soft food diet for the next 6-8 weeks. Thank you for your prayers and constant support.
