Day 4-6

On Monday I went to see my orthodontist, I assumed it was so she could wire my mouth shut but, she said I was too swollen for that. She asked how I'm finding brushing my teeth ad that it would be best to buy a small, baby toothbrush, so I bought one and it's MUCH easier! Brushing your teeth with a numb mouth is the weirdest feeling.. 

I've been pretty much the same though, I went to visit my surgeon today and there was a stitch in my cheek that he removed. He said one of two things (it's hard to hear because my hearing comes and goes an he has an accent). He said either that something happened during the surgery which caused my jaw to break in the wrong place and they had to fix it or that my jaw already had a break and they fixed it for me. Either way, it's fixed now. 

I've been eating soft food the past few days like scrambled egg... I've had a few smoothies and lots of soup and yoghurt! 

The pain has pretty much gone now, it's just a dull ache and throbbing but it's not too bad. I'm still swollen and starting to get yellow bruises, but even that has gone down quite a bit. Hopefully it will hurry up and go down! 

I'm in Manchester for a few days, so if anyone wants to pay me a visit send me a message:) it would be nice to see some people. Anyway, here are some photos: 

My mini toothbrush!

When I first woke up, my eye seemed to really small and weird.... It's back to normal now.
