Moulds and pictures...

I go in for moulds and pictures today! The moulds are so that he can measure how much he is going to move my jaw and I suppose the pictures are so that he will be able to predict what I will look like. I am very excited because we get all our instructions for surgery day today and I really want to know what I am in for!! Very very nervous!! But I can't believe that this day has finally come!!

Afterwards.....
So I went in for the appointment and had the pictures taken, which was ok and everything was going fine.... And then he was taking the moulds. I was honestly scared that my braces would pull off in the putty when he took the bottom one, and when he took the top one, I think there might have been a bit too much putty because it went down my throat making me gag. Apparently it's supposed to be banana flavored, but I didn't see it. Taste it. You know what I mean. :)

Surgery Date....Finally!

Hey! So my surgery has been organized for the 14th of December! We got a phone call today and originally it was going to be the 11th of January but we were able to get earlier! I have to go in Monday to get pictures and moulds taken! So excited! But a bit scared too, because it is really soon and I will be syringe/purée eating over Christmas, but I will be ok and I will get to go back to school on time! Yay!

Surgeon tomorrow!

So.....I am going to the surgeon tomorrow, and I am hoping that he will give me a date!!! I am very excited!! I have also had a constant headache for the last three days, so I can't wait to get rid of that!!

Orthodontist results.....

I went to the orthodontist a couple of days ago and I have some great news! My teeth are finally ready for surgery! My orthodontist said I could ring the surgeon and make a surgery date.... But as it turns out...  They don't let you make an appointment until you have actually seen the surgeon, AND the receptionist said that it will probably have to be next year, but when I told her that he was pushing for before Christmas so that it didn't interrupt school, she said that he would negotiate with the hospital. So there is some good news and some ok news, but other than that, I am really happy!
I went and had x rays done for the orthodontist to look at and they were really scary! My teeth are so much straighter than they were before, but my teeth REALLY don't mesh together well. And my chin has moved so far forward! My bottom teeth stand up straight now, but they are in front of the top teeth-which is a problem. The orthodontist didn't take moulds, so I guess the surgeon is going to do that when I go see him in a week and a half.
