Done with PT

I saw my oral surgeon today and I am done with PT.  I wasn't exactly happy with the PT and I'm confident that I can do almost all of what they did on my own.  I have made some more progress on my mouth opening, it is now 34mm.  My mouth isn't really deviating on opening all the much either, it goes a bit to the right, but its barely noticeable.  So, it looks like I don't need to spend $400 on a therabite (insurance doesn't typically cover the cost) as the tongue blades seem to be doing the trick.  If they hadn't though, I would have gladly paid that to be able to get to normal opening.  The plan is to keep adding tongue depressors until I make no more progress or get to 45mm.

Since I can feel that my front fracture is not solid, I asked how much longer it will take to firm up.  At 6 months from my surgery, I'll get another x-ray.  If its not healed by then, she may have to "go in there again".  That doesn't sound fun.  I'm going to go against my nature though and just assume that it will heal fine.  I've been convinced to varying degrees throughout this recovery that things were not going to turn out well, and so far have been wrong.  I'm getting better at not freaking out about every little thing.  I think it helps a lot that I can eat normally now, the liquid diet/soft diet where it took forever to eat small amounts of food really screwed with my head.  Plus I'm just more prone to worry than the average Joe.  I can blame that on the genes from my mom and maternal grandmother for that, as they are the same way.  I'm hoping that I didn't pass that on to my son.
