18 days!!! EEK!

So yesterday I went to the surgeon. First thing they took me back and had XRAYS done. After that we met with the nurse for a health history, and surgery info. I learned that I could be numb for up to a year!! SCARY! We got food guidelines, instructions, etc. Then I met with the resident surgeon who explained my procedure. They're moving my bottom jaw forward 5 to 6 mm and I might have to get a chin implant. We signed the papers and now it's official, I'm getting my jaw surgery on October 7th! I will be getting my surgical archwire next Tuesday. That's all for now!
