Had stage 2 surgery last Wednesday. Just got my bandages off, stitches out next week. I'm doing well compared to my first surgery. That one I was in the hospital for 30 days, this one I was out on day 4. No balance issues this time, just facial weakness. Dr's think it should come back in 12 weeks. Luckily I still have enough eye closure to avoid gold weights. That's about it, just trying to catch up on the zero sleep I've had in the last week.

Thanks again everyone.
