Title: A post-surgery picture that my husband took
Post by: MAlegant on October 09, 2008, 07:29:23 am
Hi folks,
I wanted to post this because Brian took it about 2 weeks post-op and he now says it's his favorite picture.  It may have been drugs that caused the dopey smile or the slight facial weakness.  Either way, here it is!

Thanks for the picture!  You look quite winsome and not 'dopey' at all.  :)

Jazz,
No, just slight weakness.  My right side was pulling back and my eyebrow was not symmetrical, but it's hardly noticeable.  I still can't whistle--when I can do that I'll know all is well.  And if I can't ever whistle again I guess I'll have to figure out another way to hail a taxi.  :D

Marci,

If this is how you look on a "bad" day, remind me not to stand next to you on a "good" day.

You look great!

I wouldn't even want to stand next to her on a bad day - except that we would have lots of fun whispering - on my left side, of course!!   ;)

Hi Cheri,
Yes, I was definitely holding on to that chair!  I'm glad to see you posting!  Are you in Seton Hall yet?  Or still in the hospital?  How are you feeling?
Best,
