Prayers for MrFlybye

[sundial]

You'll be close in my thoughts and prayers.

[Pedal Wench]

Thoughts are with y'all.

As an aside, I have bad TMJ, and have considered the surgery. Please let us know how the results go and if it relieves the condition, and if he felt it was worth it. Might take a while for him to think about that.

Best of luck and many prayers for a successful surgery and speedy recovery.

Please keep us posted on the results. I have a friend who is really struggling as a result of his TMJ and would be interested to know if the surgery really helped.

Good luck!

Many butterflies and healing thoughts coming your way! What a surgery! let's us now how it goes.
What kind of jaw problems was he having? Mine clicks everytime i open it. But I have never thought about sugery for it. Was he in pain? Poor guy. I hope this fix is what he needs!

[Duck on Wheels]

I don't pray, but I'm sending my best virtual butterflies and wishes. We had a tenant go through similar surgery, and all went well. Here's hoping for all those things on your wish list, with a handsome, healthy, jaw-functional guy as a result.

Sending out the vibes right now. All will be fabulous.

Let us know how it goes. I'm sorry I didn't see this yesterday or I would have let you know he can ask his surgeon for anti-nausea medication in his IV

Honestly, it will be ok. I am sending well-wishes in your direction. I've had similar surgery and I know how scary it can be. If you need anything, please PM me. I don't know what his eating restrictions will be but I have cookbooks and resources for eating liquified foods through baggies And if that isn't fabulous enough, the screws are titanium. Yes, some of us DO have titanium!

I don't know how long they estimate his recovery to be but there are some standards that just happen.

My surgery wasn't for TMJ but it had to be done. During the recovery, I never regretted it. Ever.

Hi Flybye
Its Thursday morning here, so am not sure whether Mr. has had his surgery or is about to, but when you get back to TE, know there have been a heap of us looking forward to hearing that all is ok, and you are feeling relieved and tad less stressed with a successful operation...

Thinking about you, Flybye...and your Mr. I hope everything is going smoothly today!

[sundial]

Flybye, how did your hubby do? Are you guys back home safe and sound?

[LBTC]

More butterflies coming to you, your DH and everyone involved in the surgery and recovery! Please let us know that all has gone well and how you're doing with the extra stress.

Hugs, too,
~T~

We got up at 4am and headed for the appointment 30 miles away. Everything went without a flaw. His surgery went quicker than expected and he did great! We are both exhausted from the day. I am relieved to the point of tears. I love him so much that I wished I could have taken his place. We met when I was 15 and he 17. We have been together since. Great guy.

Thanks for all of your thoughts, prayers, and pm's. What a blessing. Here is the report from my list in the first post.........


That if this surgery shouldn't take place, that there will be something in place to stop it.
There wasn't - talk about confirmation and trust building.

That the roads will be safe to drive on both going and coming.
They were!!!! We are home safely!

That the surgeon will be awake, alert, and skilled and the anesthesiologist too.
The biggest tear-filled sigh possible on this one!

That Chris will have peace.
He did!

That the general will be without negative consequences.
Went perfectly!

That I will be calm and have peace.
I had as much as was possible for me!

For quick recovery.
We'll wait on this one!

For me to be calm and helpful, not an additional freaked out patient in the room.
Pass.

For Chris not to throw up in the truck on the way home.
NO PUKE!

Grandmothers and kids did great, too!

I am absolutely exhausted and I think I will curl up by him in front of the fire and watch some incredibly shootem' up kind of man movie.

I will post more tomorrow about his diagnosis and answer other questions that were asked............

Thanks for taking the time to comfort us.

Love you guys!

[Brandi]

Awww I am so glad everything went so well! How long have you two been together? Shoot em up man movies aren't so bad when your heart is light. Enjoy eachother life is short!

Yay! I'm so glad everything went well, that's great news.

Here's to hoping for continued positive energy - a speedy healing and successful surgery that has ended all the pains of TMJ.
