After so many days after resting at home, I decide to go type an entry on my blog to vent my boredom to the virtual world! I am so so bored. Can't go out as I am att C and I wouldn't even go out with such a swollen face.
Today is already 6 days after my surgery and luckily my face start to grew abit smaller then what it look like 6 days ago. Surgery was quite successful even thought that it took a whole long 11 hours instead of the estimated 5-6 hours due to my surgeon wanted to get the most accurate mid-line for my chin. Heard from my surgeons that they change the position of my chin for more then 5 time before they decide to fix it to its current position now.
It was my first time entering the operating theatre and undergoing general anesthetic. The theatre was almost like those in drama but just that there are special computers. The scary part was 5 doctors, 7 nurses start tying you to the operation theatre even before they administer the general anesthetic. Some how it was like how they are going to dissect a human alive! Luckily they administer the general anesthetic shortly after they finally decided on what size of tube they are going to use. It kind of freak me out when you hear the doctor still discussing about the size the tube they are going to use, what worst was that they don't even know that there isn't the tube of the size carried in the hospital.
The doctor didn't even ask me to count. All they do is ask me breath, breath and breath. After like 5 deep breath, my ear became blocked and next moment, I am into my coma. Woke up at 8 pm, didn't really have much recollection to it but all i know I was super pissed, super uncomfortable. Felt like peeing but it wasn't as there was a super long tube already being stuff up my dick which will drain out the pee. My leg was super cramp, I am feeling as if I was burning and my parent telling me that my operation was longer than estimated.
Woke up at 11 pm at and didn't really sleep much after that as the temperature of the room (the air con was already set at 18 Degree Celsius) was still too warm for me.In the end, the nurse was kind enough to get me a stand fan, blowing directly at me just to keep myself cool. My 3 surgeon came at around 8 am and told me about my surgery and arranged the nurse for me to see one of the surgeon at the dental clinic at around 830.
On the way to the dental clinic I manage to see my swollen face. It was so terrible and super ugly if I really have to use the word. Its like 2 time of my normal face, lips were swollen like sausages and my chin was wrap up. I was SHOCKED!
After the consultation, the surgeon/dentist told me that I am able to leave ICU and transfer to normal ward. The new ward was the worst ward of the 3 days there which I asked my surgeon whether I am able to discharge on the day itself.
Kind of happy with quite a number of people turn up to pay me a visit. Really apologized to those who came during my surgery and wasn't able to visit me as I still had a knife stuck in my mouth! Nicholas came to see me for like 2 days out of 3 days. I was super touched by him as he was the one who made my second last meal before surgery interesting. He bought me onion rings from BK to add on to the hospital food!
Now my mouth is totally sealed and not being able to speak and eat(bite). Really felt quite bad especially seeing my mum super worried after my surgery. Cooking soup everyday, draining out all the pulps from all the juices i wanted to drink, trying to remind me not to blow my nose .etc. My dad also became even more busy too. Trying to help my mum to buy all those stuff she needs....
Next appointment will be on the 13th september at 230pm. Hope I will be able to remove the rubber band by then. If the surgeon really does it.... it means I am able to eat!!!!
it's you and me <3
