Surgery, Stage One: Facial
2/5/2006: The pictures on the following pages you will not see or have not seen on any other page or section of this web site, for the most part. They are presented here for the first time and have not seen the light of day at any time before, any where else. They may have been part of a series that is elsewhere but the particular image itself is indeed new in that it has not been published or seen before this time.
8/28: A few days later I went back to the same surgeon to have him do some lip surgery work on me. It was supposed to have been done along with the other work as the same time but he thought it was too much to do then while working on me (without my consent, since I was under) so he rescheduled it. To this day, I still don't see what the surgery accomplished. I don't feel I received any benefit from it; it was one of his ideas to perform it all along anyway. I still have the scars however which drives me crazy to trying to hide with makeup. Anyway, you can see, I am looking far better, even in just a week in these pictures.
9/2: Getting better all the time...
9/9: The nose takes the longest to heal; right now in these pictures, it is huge but to me it feels, in terms of it's inner size very small. It is just very swollen; after all it has been broken by the surgeon in many places.
9/11: In these, between the eyes, lips and hair, I look like a "Cupie doll" the way I did my makeup, especially apparent in the first picture; one strange look that I have never done again since.

9/17: Depression sets in; I was thinking no one loved me, no one cared.
