The Surgery Chronicles - Day Three

Well- I awoke today looking even more swollen…but I guess that’s par for the course. I imagine it will stay swollen for a few days and will start coming down early next week so I have a bit of a trying weekend ahead of me. Today I will have to learn how to look after my mouth a bit better and figure out how to brush. It’s kind of hard when you have to go behind extremely swollen lips and around these huge cheeks…it’ll be a bit of a learning curve to say the least.
When I looked in the mirror this morning I had to laugh. Wearing my glasses and noticing that the top of my head is of normal size and the bottom is so distorted, I resemble a fun house version of Rick Moranis…or even better Art Buchwald (no disrespect to Mr. Buchwald who is currently handling his pending death with an amazing amount of dignity and humour)

That’s all I have to report. My son has texted my phone begging me to stop posting on my blog because “I’m freaking people out and you DON’T want to market yourself that way…” Hahaha – that’s Carman for you…in all fairness, he’s probably right. But I feel if a life is worth living, it’s worth keeping a record of it. If nobody reads it, what good did it do?


That being said, I have one picture to add today…plus Rick and Art – you figure it out from there…

Happy trails
