Ohhhh, Denise I am so excited for you!  I hope the surgery is a wonderful success!  I have a friend on another board with total facial paralysis and is considering corrective surgery so I will be interested to hear about your experience.

GOOD LUCK!!!

WOW

Thanks for all the positive energy.  I am both anxious and a little nervous about my upcoming surgery. I can't believe its time for my surgery already, time sure flies.

Again, THANKS for all the positive energy and prayers.

Denise ;)
