you'll still look like yourself. Just the best of yourself...

They'll have computer disigital technology to show a fair idea of what you'll look like.

everyday it hink about this surgery. Everyday. Counting down. My patience is running out. Its like everything else im putting on halt until i have this surgery. it feels like im invalid as a person until i have this surgery. before i go to sleep, i think about how happy i will be after this is over and done with. i think about the timing and affects it will have on my life next in my first year of uni. will i ahve to defer to recover? what do i tell poeple? so many thoughts. i even think about how i could have had this surgery sooner if only i had set up my insurance earlier. almost 8 months to go.
