We Made It!!!
18 August 2023
Wow, what a week it has been! Its hard to believe that its happened really- it has all flown by so fast! We are now one week post op from the life changing jaw surgery that you all helped me get- so heres the update so far!
Surgery went well- took just over 7.5 hours- they also had to remove a tooth- which ended up having two roots which is apparently incredibly rare!! SO I have a very cool souvenir!
After two nights in hospital, we headed back to the air BNB in Auckland for a few days and headed back up north only a few days ago. And its nice to be back home! Physio has started and we are beginnig to reduce the pain releif- and the wound is incredibly tidy and healing well- its all going very smoothly!
I am on a soft food diet for another 6 weeks- which means that my slice of toast will have to wait a little bit but I think I can hold out!
Again, thank you to you all- even though I don't think thank you will ever cut it!
Kate :)
