My Operation

I'm no longer updating this page, but it looks like Google hasn't figured that out! I moved all my posts to my WordPress page and am still posting updates there.

I underwent bimaxillary osteotomy (jaw surgery) on 2nd April, 2012. I wrote down my experiences before, during and after surgery and put it in this blog, as a way to let my friends know how I was getting on.
Here’s the story:
