    No pain-just "tightness"-I guess that was the point of the surgery, right? Lol. I look like a mummy right now with racoon eyes. Nobody here at the Hotel Lucerne is looking at me funny - I guess they are use to it as this is a Medical Recovery hotel for many people from all over the world. My room is poolside-never even thought to bring my bathing suit!!! Oh well, next time when I am not getting surgery but just accompanying my patients. This is my last surgery! My thighs dont bother me (right now, anyway-I mean, they just look like 59 year old thighs-probably could tighten them with exercize if I wasnt so lazy).
    Although, I had sent three gals to the clinic, I hadnt been there myself until yesterday. I had a wonderful surgical crew! They all spoke English and a few even practice, also, on California. And, of course, Dr Niebles is a sweetheart- with ALL his patients - and Laura, his other coordinator is awesome. She will go above and beyond. She even had a birthday cake sent to MsLovely's room (another patient having mmo today) because it was her mom's birthday yesterday when they arrived.She took me shopping for yogurt, drinks, etc to stock my refrig for my stay because I didnt know if I would be able to open my mouth but I can open it about halfway so far. I put ice on my eyes for 20 minutes every view hours as Dr Niebles instructed and each time afterwards they felt better and I was able to close them more.
    Sooooo-enough ramblingfor now!!
    Anyone considering any plastics. Please consider Dr Niebles! I say this from my heart not as a coordinator. Once you were to meet him and our whole team, you will feel like a special patient as you are made to feel as its ALL ABOUT YOU!!

    Thanks all for your positive vibes, prayers and well wishes. This morning, I felt like crap (the typical "day 3" Yuk feeling)and just being a big baby and feeling sorry for myself. Dr Niebles came to the hotel to see me and MsLovely. He came in my room, made me get up out of bed and take a shower, put on clean brand new clothes I had brought - he even dried my hair before he assessed my stitches and rewrapped my face. Then, said, "You see? You are even more beautiful now!!" I have to admit, I feel lots better since that shower!!!
