Ive just gone thru the jaw reconstruction and its not an easy proceedure. He is strong minded and that will help him get thru this. Please feel free to ask me any questions about this proceedure you might have.
Im sorry I havent been online lately. Im recovering and typing inst very easy for me right now. Please give Jim my love and let him know I said it will be ok. If I can do it, he can too!
