I know I should be drinking more to stay hydrated and get in enough calories but it is so difficult to drink that I get exhausted!
My goals today: watch a movie no matter how tired I am, drink a whole can of tomato soup and a bottle of propel water.

Days 3&4
These are supposed to be the worst days because the swelling peaks and so far, yep this is terrible. My face is so swollen I don't even recognize myself, I can barely breathe because my nose is full of blood, and I can barely swallow because they put an expander type thing on the roof of my mouth. I sure hope this is the worst of it because I have never been so uncomfortable in my life.

As the caretaker and Mom, it is so difficult to see someone you love experience this surgery. It has been overwhelming for both of us, however I know she will improve each day! It is also very important to make sure that they get enough calories and intake of fluids the first few days - which is not easy.
