Almost 5 Weeks

Hard to believe that at this time five weeks ago, I was gnawing on a turkey leg and munching on peanut M&Ms. But that was the old me. Now it's strictly mush & mash.

Just a quick update on the recovery:

1. Numbness receding on the roof of my mouth
2. Sensation returning to a few of the lower back teeth
3. Chin pain about the same
4. Major tingles on lower lip and chin - a sign of nerve regeneration
5. Sleep (the magic question): no major changes although I woke up today without a headache for the first time since the surgery
6. Speech feels impaired as jaw mobility is limited
7. Mush diet easiest to manage
8. Back to work full time
