I’m home.  Whitman is taking wonderful care of me, of course. He always does.

Contrary to my previous post about the anesthesia being “conscious sedation”, I really had a very light general anesthesia – no intubation, paralyzation, etc. So I was out, but not deeply, and not for long.

I was home about 3 hours after the surgery; I had some breakfast and a nap.  The pain is minimal so far, but we’ll see as the surgery meds start wearing off. As of now, I’m feeling good and looking Frankenstein-ish! I have about 20 stitches – 10 on each lip. I’ll post some pics of the healing but not yet. I don’t want to scare everyone off!
