Thank you Joanna,

That means so much. I am still waiting for her doctor to call me back. He must be having a late night because its already almost 8pm and I know he schedules sugeries all day fridays and won't be able to call tommorrow. My mom forgot to mention to me that she had been poking around in the hole in her mouth where she had the skin graph that didn't really take and food always gets stuck in there. She also used the water pik a couple times yesterday so in my head I'm thinking that's what is causing the swelling. Its only a slight swelling in the jawline and not really noticeable to anybody unless she points it out. So hopefully its just irratated. I'll post when we find out what it is.
