Thanks for all the well wishes for my oral surgery. It went well. One moment I was talking about my work at the college and the next moment I could hear the surgeon and nurses talking. They sounded as if they were off in the distance, but when I opened my eyes they were standing over me.
At one point, I felt the suture thread on the corner of my mouth. And then it was time to go. As male nurse was wheeling me toward the car in a wheelchair, I asked Jilda if she wanted me to drive. Jilda and the male nurse snorted with laughter.
The afternoon was low key. I spent most of the time on the couch reading magazines and books that I'd been holding on to until I found time to read them. I also caught up on my blog reading.
I'd been dreading the surgery for weeks, and I'm glad it's behind me.

Now that's a look I'm familiar with! Glad all went well but be sure to take it easy!
ReplyDeleteThank heaven for mobile ice packs. REALLY take it easy. A picture to remember - good thing the surgery was with anesthetic.

You do resemble Santa a little bit there with your white ice pack! A fashion statement for this time of year for sure! Hope you a doing good now and not in much pain. I remember one of my sons having wisdom teeth out and starving so he filled up on mashed potatoes.
ReplyDeleteI've had just about every treatment a dentist can provide and so I know going to ther dentist is not fun, but you wear that bandage with style.
ReplyDeleteWell big guy, I guess that means to keep your mouth shut for a while heh! Actually, you can wear the headband around the top of your head when you go for your walk. haha. I'm glad everything went well.
ReplyDeleteTake it easy.
Hugs,
Julia

ReplyDeleteEnjoy the recovery time..
I guess you won't be going on tour this weekend.
ReplyDeleteI wish you a speedy recovery. Your ice pack reminds me of the mumps slings we used to have to wear.
