Had a better sleep last night than I had all week. Felt good to only wake up once during the night and not to wake up from the feeling of choking.
I am impressed with my bite it really is nice. I get funny like my foot is asleep in my nose, cheeks and lip.
Decided not to walk the dog today and have my dog walker come and do her thing. My mom left this afternoon. She was so very helpful. My girlfriend is going to spend the night. My 15 year old son is getting used to looking at me and is starting to talk to me more and more.
Despite the guide/guard , my speech is getting better. Can't wait for my OS appt tomorrow , he promised to remove it, I hope that is still the case as I would really like to be able to speak better.
I ate scrambled eggs, coffee in a mug, mushed carrots, macaroni and cheese and pumpkin pie without the crust. Funny combo , but better than a shake. I am already sick of shakes!

Day 4 - Post Op Lefort 1
Thank god for the person who invented Q-tips. When you are not allowed to blow your nose for weeks, this is one wonderful invention!!
Went for another walk with the dog today and I dont think I should have done it at all, it was too much. My nose kept bleeding and I wasnt feeling well. I sat on the couch and felt a little depressed today.
The only positive thing was that I cleaned up my lips and I was able to eat scrambled eggs and tomato soup, which was fabulous!!
My elastics broke, I had two on each side guiding my jaws. I called the doctor who said it was ok just to keep practicing the correct placement of my jaws.

Day 3 - Post Op Lefort 1
My entire focus is food as I am getting hungry now. Now is the time to whip out all the baby food, yogart , milk, protien shakes, and vitamin water.
Lots of drooling during this adventure. Switching over to heat instead of ice packs. I still feel like I should use ice, but I will listen to the doctors office.
Took my lab for a walk today as I was told a walk would do me some good to get the blood circulating. Perhaps I did it too soon as my nose kept bleeding for the rest of the day.
