Thanks Jim. Unfortunately, much of my summer break may involve more surgery for the trismus and recovery from it. That is, if I get to the point when I'm sure this surgery is the right thing to do. It's too bad because right now I am thinking I'd also enjoy just havng a couple of months to work in the garden....
