Ashlee surgery

Day after surgery - July 15th
















July 16th - friends came to visit
she doesn't feel well enough to even visit with them.








Sunday July 20th. She was staying at her moms and Marc and I went to see how she was doing. Finally she looked like she had a little life in her eyes. Not in this picture necessarily but she even kind of smiled.






July 27th at her best friends babtism. She still can't close her lips but looking quite normal.












This is today. August 10th.
She is going to be unwired on Wednesday 4 weeks and two days after the surgery. Originally the doctor had told us that she would be wired shut for one week. But after surgery he said she would probably be wired shut for 4 weeks just because her bones weren't that healed from her wisdom teeth surgery 3 months ago. She has been miserable and a pretty good little trooper but better to be safe than sorry.


On July 14th Ashlee had her surgery. It has some extremely long name but basically they extended and tipped her bottom jaw and extended her chin about 1/4 of inch. She was actually not in a lot of pain right from the start. Pretty much just nauseous for a week!!!
