Pre-OP Consult

I met the Surgeon today, long day of pre-op stuff. Took some x-rays, pretty cool images if I may add. But its a 6.5 hour long surgery, the surgeon's gonna make some changes, not sure if we are comfortable with it all so we're gonna see him again tomorrow.

I'm going in at 6:00AM on Thursday, and then have surgery on 7:15AM. Thereafter, I'll have a morphine drip, and tubes for sucking saliva. Then I'll stay in Santa Barbara for 10 days to have the doctor to check up on me. I'll have titanium brackets to hold my bones together. As of right now my upper and lower jaw will be cut and moved forward. Also have some cheek augmintation.

Santa Barbara is a nice place, very beautiful!
