Great job with the weight gain! Your attitude is inspiring. I was feeling kind of "woe is me" today but reading your post reminded me that it feels a lot better to tackle these challenges with a positive heart and a strong will to fight. I wish I could give you a big hug. Hope your new jaw works out very well for you.
