I'm definitely less swollen than yesterday, but still a bit sore. I've just been talking a lot between catching up with old friends and meeting new people. I had a few nerve pinches again today, though nothing unbearable. Other than that fatigue and soreness in my joint from talking, there isn't anymore pain. I think at this point the bones have healed enough where they wont hurt anymore, so that's definitely still good.
Even though I know that I'm healing I still worry and baby my face a bit. Sleeping in certain positions still makes me scared that I'm going to break something loose. If I bite down hard there's a slight crunching sound. Nothing seems out of place in my photos, so it can't be movement, though it's still a really disconcerting sound. I don't rest my hand on my chin. Like I said, I baby my face. I'm just so scare to mess things up after coming so far!
Today was interesting, because even though I've come a long way, I haven't been without my family since surgery. I'm taking care of all meals and worried moments without them. It isn't like I can't handle it, but it definitely adds a new dynamic to this whole healing thing. I guess I'm just a bit anxious. The good news is that my mother and surgeon are just a phone call away if I need them.
Other than that things are really good. I'm back with friends, and I haven't had a chance to be bored, which is nice after a long summer.
I still haven't fixed my internet issue, so I will post today's pictures as soon as I get my computer up and running. Be well!!!
