Hello everyone. Sara's mom, Anita here. I have to apologize up front as I am not half as witty as my daughter. Sara was hoping to update you herself as yesterday was a great day. Today she isn't feeling quite as perky but wanted me to update her post. Her surgery lasted just over 4 hours and went extremely well. Her surgeon advanced her upper jaw 9mm. She has surgical splints on her upper and lower jaw which will be in for 8 weeks. They decided against wiring her jaw shut (a good thing for Miss Sara Hutton)) but might at a later date. We were shocked to see her wide awake as they brought us to the recovery room. Once up to her ICU room she automatically started typing away on either facebook or her cell phone. As we all know it's hard to keep Sara tied down, non the less quiet (like her mom). Today her spirits are good despite the fact that she is in a lot of pain. It is simply amazing how little she is swollen with no bandages all. They say the swelling will max at 48 hours. She will continue to heal and as her blog is labeled, breathe or bust! I would like to thank you all for all reading her blog, now you just have to become a member! More updates to follow, hopefully next time by Sara herself. Till then, continue with the texts,facebooking and blog comments.........
Glad to hear that Sara came through the surgery OK and that her spirits are good. We hope she continues to make a good recovery.
