February 3, 2004

HI EVERYONE!

HOPE EVERYBODY IS OK AND PROGRESSING WELL PRE OR POST OP!

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL- a bit late i know.lol.

I am currently doing a project at university for my art and design

course. I am hoping to take into account this group and also photos

of the journey we all go through-though the photos will be of myself-

as the project has a personal theme. my question is

does anyone know how to access the photos on site one? as when i try

it says group error check. unfortunatley i dont have any photos of

my surgery at uni and i am unsure whether we have any at home. if

anyone can help here i would be very greatful! Thanks!

For the new memebers i will just fill you in on my status. Im 18,

currently at uni. I started treatment for a class III underbite

when i was 12/13. I was in braces from the age of 13 and still wear

them now at night. I had my first surgery april 2002, to remove my

wisdom teeth (17). Followed by double jaw surgery on the 1st of

august 2002. I was So excited to have my operation, and i have to

say the experience wasnt as bad as i had thought it would be. I

would say that the removal of wisdom teeth in my experience was

worse than the actual jaw surgery. FOr my jaw surgery i had my jaw

broken 5 times, the top moved forward app 7mm, and the bottom taken

back about 5/6mm. Also the palate of my mouth was broken and moved

forward. I also had some sinus work done. When i first found this

group app a week before my jaw surgery, i was a little apprehensive

about the whole thing. I was so taken aback with the genorosity of

the people on these boards and they really did make me feel more

relaxed and focus on the good side of the surgery. I also have

dissolveable plates and screws which i still have today, well i know

i have two screws under each eye, im not sure about the plates.

They are meant to last full strength for 9 months, then the

following 9 months dissolve into the blood stream.

That about sums me up, oh images from my surgery are under katerina

on site one, tho theres a problem with the photos bit at the moment.

Good luck for anyone with up coming surgery!

Regards

Kat_uk
