Hi from Primary's

I am here at Primary's with a very happy young woman without wires and screws.  She is doing great.  The surgery was at 11:00 and by 12:30 she was done.  The doctor was very pleased with how everything went and how her jaw looks now.  He did have to stitch a few stitches in her cheek where the post was on one side had torn a hole over the past few months.  She went to intensive care for about 4 hours but she was doing great so they sent her to a regular surgical ward around 5:00.  There is even a chance that she might go home tomorrow which would be great.

Jena is happy to have everything out of her mouth into a container that she can take to school to show.  She said she is happy to talk and to be able to feel her teeth with her tongue.  She is starting to swell some and that will be a problem for a week or so, but that is much better than having stuff in her mouth.

She saw me writing this post and said to say that she misses everyone.

Thanks for your thoughts and prayers in her behalf.

Have a good night.

Oh Jena, I'm sooooooooooo proud of you. You did great! I am hoping your mom will take a picture of all that stuff that was in your mouth and post it on your blog. WOWSERS! Keep following the doctors orders. I love you. Sis. T.O.
