CCU Re-opens
The Critical Care Unit, otherwise known as my bedroom, is open again for business. SpyC had more oral surgery today, but this time it was a lot less invasive than the surgery she had about a month ago. The doctor had to go in and shave/file down two bone shards that resulted from her teeth extraction. Apparently this side effect happens to one in 20 who have their wisdom teeth pulled.
Fortunately, the anesthesia was much more mild this time and heeling time will only be a couple of days. In fact, the doc said SpyC could go back to work tomorrow, but recommended she take a day off if possible. That is exactly what she's doing. I just changed the packing in her mouth and she again is sleeping soundly. Which is a good thing because she says it stings.
We are fully stocked with mashed potatoes, tomato soup, peach sorbet and Gatorade to keep her fully hydrated and nourished to aid a speedy recovery.
