Oh wow, I am so bad about writing on this blog. I am wanting to do better and about this. As, I am typing this, I am thinking that wow, one week tomorrow I will be in a recovery room for the surgery that was supposed to be earlier in the year but due to set back, had to be pushed back. I am currently thinking about what all needs to get done at work and I know that as the week narrows and I realize that OH MY GOODNESS, 7 days from today I could look better and have a functional jaw bone.
This is a new concept for me as I have not had one really for my whole life. Yes, my former doctor attempted to make one however, just like true Manda fashion, I do not do anything normal or rather it does not end up the way that it was planned.
I am blessed to have my friends, family, and co-workers in my life who are supporting me thru this journey. I have made friends through this process and I know that in the end it will be better. I have been asked, am I doing this for me to help make myself "feel good" or am I doing it because I want to...I think it is a little bit of both. I want to have the option to look normal however, I have been thinking about this...what is normal?
As, I ponder this week I will post different reflections. Some will be related to the surgery and some will not. For example, I was driving the other day and heard a singer sing a song that she wrote about being bullied in school and yes, I will have a post on this.
So.....stay tuned....
As always, My favorite Verse "All can do all things thru Christ Jesus who Gives me Strength." I have to hold on to this!
Love,
Manda!
