Hey Gang - Yesterday afternoon I had to have an agressive non-cancerous tumor removed from my lower right jaw. They took the initial piece out 3 weeks ago, then found out it was growing and had to take out about a 1-2 inche section of my lower jaw, remove 3 teeth/nerves, rebuild the jaw, sew it all up including my cheek to my gums, and send me home last night. I'll have to go back in 6-9 months to have the cheek re-cut/seperated then go back a few months later for implants for the 3 teeth they had to remove.
The good news is it was not cancerous and I found it before it took over my whole lower jaw and before we moved to China.
I'm living on Lortabs, ibuprofen, ALL liquid diet (yes Tex, Dr. said as soon as I get off the Lortabs I can hit the beer again! ) for a week or 2. I'm sore as hell!! I look like I a lopsided squirel having stuffed nuts in my right cheek!!! LOL Trying to keep a stiff upper lip, actualy a swollen lower lip! I Kill me!!!! LOL
Beka has been a trooper, especialy since I was in Sydney all last week, and she is now married to a bassboat driving toothless jewish redneck!!!! LOL
I'm not able to talk for about a week, so work will consist of email and instant messaging sitting on my fat butt!!
Hope everyone is well, and Greg and gang had a great trip to KY Lake!
