Things are well...going oddly for me at the moment, as is to be expected in a situation such as this right? I have my decent moments and moments where I just want to ripe a hole in someones happy dreamscape and show them the monsters in my head. The monsters being pain, mind you. LOL.
But I have fought bigger and badder monsters and won, and I will do so again dammit. I just have to keep my eye on the bouncing ball. *watches ball and grabs a dart..throws..gives happy grin and sits down..stupid ball*
I understand you had a Birthday! Hope it was splendid and full of laughs.

Tankies! Today is an odd day for me. I am not in any pain, but due too muscle spasms in my back I can not actually get to sleep. I have had maybe 4 hours all together since coming home on Friday. GRRR! I am taking my MS muscle relaxers three times a day, plus my Lunesta at night and of course all the pain meds they have me on..still not sleeping. It's not mental, because my mind is ready..sooo ready for sleep. I am like a walking zombie really, no it is my darn twitches and spasms. I was like this before, but before the surgery I could always lay on my belly and tuck my self into me and eventually sleep. But because of my jaws, I can only lay half way (sitting up in bed). *Growls again*. But hey, I am still positive, just cranky. hahaha. Maybe Ice cream will help? Woohoo!
Tomorrow I will go to sick call and see what they can do for me, if anything.
Hey, thanks again gang for your support and have a great Vet. Day!!

Honey, I'm hommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmme! They kept me three days in the Hospital, with twenty-four of those hours being spent on the ICU ward because of complications. I am doing much better now I think and the docs are amazed at the fact that I show no bruising and seem to be healing very very fast and can already chew super mushy stuff if I want. Don't they know they are dealing with a superhero named "The Cosmic Soldier Girl?" *wink*
I have pretty much no pain at all either and the swelling should be way worse but is not that bad. Woohoo. Anyways, here are a few picturs of me today.

The day is almost upon me and can't say I am a jumping up and down with glee shouting "Weee" at the prospect folks. Tomorrow I FINALLY will be undergoing my operation in San Antonio. As one might expect I am experiencing the jitters and minor anxiety attacks. I am trying to be calm, cool and collected..but it's just not happening! And ya know what..its NORMAL for one to be in this state when major surgery is on the menu. Not too mention it is my FACE that they are working on! Even John Wayne or Clint Eastwood would trying not to piddle in the drawers knowing that their jaws are going too be broken in several places, sinus area in nose cut into, incisions made under both eye sockets made, skin peeled back from mouth and nose peeled back..did I miss anything? Oh yeah, nose and chin redone just for good measure! So I think I have the right to whine here dammit! The surgery will last 6-8 hours at least and I will be kept in the Hospital for 2-3 days minimum (sp?). Not a fun time these next couple of days, not at all!
I am, at my son's request keeping a daily diary and photo's, which I will be posting here. You be seeing a strange looking creature with over the top swollen lips and face..that creature gang, will be me. So keep that in mind when you are tempted to post silly comments ok? Trust that once I am able, I will be getting ya'll back with a vengance! GRR.
I just got a call from the Oral Surgeon's office.."Can you come in really really early tomorrow morning? We are moving you up to our first case". So instead of having to get up at five and leave Fort Hood by six so I can be there by nine am, I now have to get up at two in order to be there by six am! Fine, whatever I just want it OVER..here me O-V-E-R!!!!
Today I have spent (Or trying to spend..damne phone!), napping and getting those last minute things done. Cleaned everything, did laundry, trash out, etc. Some friends are coming over later and cooking what they being smartasses call "The Last Meal". Cute gang, cute. I will be stuffing my little normal sized face as much as possible, no doubt about that! Think I will just sit infront of the mirror before that and just stare at my face. Hey, my whole facial look is gonna change (per the doctors), so while that is a weird thing for a person to do (do keep in mind I am Darcy though, weird is the norm for me! haaha), considering everything, I think its very sane thanks.
Ok, hate cutting this short but I have an appointment to go too. Yay. NOT.
Shoulda gone for a boob job and tummy tuck instead huh?
Later crank-yankers and feather fetish lovers,
Darcy
