Day 7 post-op w/ doc and more on smoking

[Guest guest]

Well today was my check in with my doc. He said i've been doing well

except for lack of hygiene. My problem wasn't that I didn't do it, I

jsut wasnt good enough. I didn't know my boundries on my lips and

teeth. It was really hard to brush since my lips are numb and huge,

not to mention sort of hurt when I move them around alot. I had alot

of gunk and stuff but I took car of it when I got home. He said my

teeth look great though and ill probebly stay on my liquid diet for

another month or so.

I'm going back to school on thursday... on 10 day post op. He wants

me to and I hate making up stuff anyway, ill probebly start physical

labor(work) next monday. From what I read I SHOULDN'T be ready...

but oh well, damn pressure from mother.

More comments on smoking. The fact that im not around my parents

that much enables me to get away from most of the smoking, I don't

talk to them all that much. For me its a psychological addiction,

more then anything. I'll probebly end up quitting, when I get older

and wiser, and more broke =(.
