Debridement Done, More Wait and See

The debridement went as well as I could hope for, no complications and no surprises--except for the "Kill me now" pain I felt as I started to wake up in the recovery room. Luckily that was taken care of by two of my old friends from three years ago--Fentanyl and Dilaudid, so it wasn't long before things got more tolerable and I was ready for the second set (think about it, Paully).

Now the waiting starts again in the hopes that my jaw will heal and I can avoid the procedure that will make today look like a walk in the park. We need Team Mike to keep sending your Good Vibes for the next several weeks, so that I'll start to feel some healthy new tissue growing in that area, and the end of ORN will be in sight.

Off to a good start.

Mike
