Follow my adventures in the world of jaw surgery (orthognathic surgery). I had a Bilateral Sagittal Split Osteotomy (bsso) and a 2 piece LeFort 1 widening my upper jaw. My oral surgeon also reduce my gummy smile by making my upper jaw 5mm shorter and pushing it up and back, tilting it and pushing my lower jaw back 3mm. Apparently I had an overjet AND an underbite. Lucky me. (Details as to how this is possible are under the title "Ready for surgery") Surgery was Dec 1, 2011.

Day 26
Every year I go shopping with my family in the predawn hours of the morning for the day after Christmas sale. I was up at 4am but didn't feel up to go out in public with my face all covered up. I'm sooo tired of this splint. If I didn't have it in my mouth I would feel and look more normal. I feel asleep at a decent hour last night finally. I was so tired that I actually feel asleep at 7pm and slept all the way until 4am. I woke up feeling awesome and full of energy. So much better than staying up all night. Didn't take a picture today because I feel asleep super early again while watching tv and didn't realize I was that tired.
