I'm relieved to have my oral surgery behind me. It went fast, and the sedative knocked me out before the doctor had finished the injection. I do remember being aware of having my mouth propped open, and I recall the doctor standing over me with the drill, but that is about all. I had taken off my jacket before the procedure, and on the way to the car I realized that I must have put it back on. I do not remember that. I wonder what else I did.
Momma took me to get a smoothie from Smoothie King, since a friend told us that is what she did. It was quite good, but eating with one's lower lip and tongue numbed is a challenge. Momma kept having to tell me that I had smoothie on my chin, because I could not feel it.
Once we arrived home, Momma set me up with ice packs. We found that frozen peas and carrots make a pretty good ice pack. If I can't eat my veggies, at least I can wear them! Since then I've been asleep more than I've been awake. Thank you to all who have been praying for me. I appreciate your prayers.
I am so relieved for you! It sounds like it went well - let's continue to pray for a speedy recovery! BIG HUGS to you!!!
