FINALLY

I'm getting braces today and that will start the process to my surgery...8 to 12 months until surgery. I can't wait to get this all over with. I've only been out of my splint for a week now and am already taking 4 ibuprofen almost everyday again. I found a support group online for people who are going through this process as well and i've read that some people go from being completely withdrawn and quiet to very outgoing. until I have the surgery I know I will be even more withdrawn and tired (from pain) than I am now, but I'm sooo excited for it to be over. I plan on getting a cute haircut after instead of hiding behind my tons of hair. I think i'll get my makeup done too...I won't be so ashamed to have someone look at my face. I am still so angry about all of the pain I'm in because I KNOW it wouldn't be so bad if orthodontist John Smith hadn't slowly and painfully dislocated my jaw. I want to put up a website about him letting people know what he did so that he loses patients. Am I a bad person for wanting that? I apologized to Dr. Gittess for being so panicky when I go there, I don't mean to freak out I know he feels bad for me. alright, gotta get ready to go...
