Day 7...

Well, here we are on day 7.  I have exhausted all resources of having surgery to correct my jaw.  The closest surgeon who could do what I need is in Florida.  My pain management doctor gave me some pain meds to help with coming off of the ibuprofen.  I also did some research about natural anti-inflamtories, so I bought some aloe vera juice at CVS today.  It is supposed help with digestion AND build up cushioning around joints.  Supposedly with just a few tablespoons a day, I should see an improvement within a week.  I will have to let you know how it works!

I am having a struggle in my mind about exercising.  I know I need to, and I have several ways that I can go about doing it... but the problem is the desire.  Between allergies, pain, and just plain laziness, I would much rather just lay down and watch TV.  Motivation is what I need!  I'll be praying for more of it =o)

Things I am looking forward to...  energy.  Lots and lots of energy.  My friend who had a bypass done a couple of months ago looks terrific, and she said she feels pretty for the first time.  I won't say that I have never felt pretty, but I am really looking forward to feeling better about how I look.  She also said that she feels great!  I am soooo looking forward to that!
