Day 4 of Recovery




The days are starting to blend together and each day feels the same as the last. Gabby is still sleeping most of the day and night. She hasn't watched the videos or read the magazines that some of you were nice enough to give her, because she has no attention span. She complains of pain about every four hours. She actually tried smiling for the picture today and she did a good job. Her lips are healing nicely. We hope the incisions inside her mouth are healing as well. She is eating small portions (max. of 1/2 cup) about three times a day. We purchased some liquid vitamins and liquid protein to add to things she drinks, but she HATES it. If anyone out there in blog land wants them, let me know, because she refuses to use them again. She is dropping weight of course, we were surprised that she lost another 1.5 lbs. today. She is currently 121.5 lbs.

  1. You look more like yourself every day. It's amazing how much the swelling goes down daily. Do you still have your braces on? It's hard to tell in the pic. Keep up the good work!

  2. Hey Gabby,
    Jessica and I are glad to see you are improving so much every day. We hope you're not in too much pain, but we know you're tough. We are gonna be in town tomorrow to check out some places for the wedding, so we're gonna come pay you a visit if you're up for it. See you soon!

    Uncle D and Jess

  3. Yes, Gabby still has her braces on. She will have them for about 6 months to get everything set up correctly.
