1998's Surgery Log: 9-22-1998


I just returned from two doctor appointments. One was a dentist appointment to fill more teeth to stop the annoying cavities and pain. The other one was to see the doctor to check up on my improved mouth and discuss about the future. I had another dentist appointment last week which was not fun. After visiting the doctor, the bad news came. My facial nerves were still not coming back for my right side of the face to move and feel. I might need a surgery in about a month or so to find the problem(s) and to fix. I really don't want to go through this. I hope my nerves do come back in less than a month to skip this. The doctors will have to cut behind my right ear to get to the target area. If I delay this too long, my muscle could detrioriate. If I have another surgery, I will have another scar for me! GRR!!!!!!!! Obviously, this will delay the jaw surgery until 1999 :(. Please continue praying, supporting, wishing, etc. for me. Two months anniversary since my surgery :(.

The good news is that UGA is back again to see all my old friends! Reunion time. Woohoo! Maybe my nerves will come back to life after this? :). This will be a first time for them to see my bigger mouth and hard-to-see scar near my right ear.
