Glad you are healing up. Rest whenever you can. I am sure the pain will subside long before the swelling and bruising do, but it's done! You did it! Now, take it easy and wait for the results to show up.

Hi Courtney

I'm sorry to hear that the worry about how people might react to you has now turned into actually dealing with real pain.  That must make things even harder to cope with.  I hope you are able to get some proper rest and that the pain eases soon.  Wishing you a speedy recovery.  Please take care of yourself.

Best Wishes Always

"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment" ... Ralph Waldo Emerson 🌸

Let go of the things that no longer serve you... Let go of the pretense of the false persona, it is not you... Let go of the armor that you have worn for a lifetime, to serve the expectations of others and, to protect the woman inside... She needs protection no longer.... She is tired of hiding and more courageous than you know... Let her prove that to you....Let her step out of the dark and feel the light upon her face.... amg🌸

Bone work is much more uncomfortable than skin and tissue work. Jaw surgery was the only work I had done that made me question my decision. Recovery can be quite painful. Do not fall behind on your pain medications. If you think you're feeling good and can skip them for a while, don't! Continue taking them as prescribed for as long as your doctor says. It will get better. One day you will be very happy that you did it. For now, rest, take your pain meds, and remember that you are another step closer to your goal.

Love always -- Jessica Rose
