One week later....







So here we are a week after surgery. We had the followup appointment with the surgeon today, he said Shelby was healing exceptionally well and was very pleased with her progress. She still has alot of swelling in her upper lip and cheeks, but it will continue to go down as time goes on. She has been a trooper with only 2 breakdowns. Eating is a challenge and she gets soooo hungry and then has to watch us eat real food and she has a little emotional time then she's back to being strong again. When asked if it's worth it and if she would do it again, she answers with a very emphatic "Yes". She decided to put on some makeup today and try to smile, she did a pretty good job for only bein able to feel half her face. That to will come in time.
