Guest guest Posted December 20, 2003 Report Share Posted December 20, 2003 Bonjour to you, aussi! Those are sweet words. You make me blush. All of us help each other, around here. That's why we're here. A lot of what I " know, " I only know because I've read a lot of posts. (I was in sheer terror at the thought of all this stuff -- unnecessary terror, I might add. But real, none the less. And the guys and gals here helped me learn and be less afraid, for which I will ever be grateful.) And may your good wishes be returned to you manyfold! Joyeux Noel!

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2004 Report Share Posted February 20, 2004 AH--HA! The more imposing, the better! Especially if these folks are giving you any sort of brush-off. Congratulations!!! And I hope the impact will register. Uhn-uhn. I (lay person/idjut that I am, do not think it is at all natural for your jaw to pop out of place. And honestly, I doubt that most maxillofacial surgeons or orthos would either! That's appalling. And I think it's a pile of poop. I haven't been to school, though, and don't have the credentials for my opinion to mean anything. I do know good ortho's and surgeons, though, if you wanna take a vacation in lower Alabama and have some consults!) Are you a Feb. 29 kid? With a b'day only every four years? Honey, don't feel foreign at all... And I repeat, you're a nice guy! Treasure that part of your personality and cultivate it! You are probably more welcome here than I am. And keep talking about your experience. Some of us have mine. Some of us have yours. I only wish I could share mine with you. Best, and do keep on keeping on and letting us know...
