Yikes Killerzzz, that sounds seriously unpleasant... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/puppyeyes.gif" alt="" />

I hope it's sorted now. Your graphic description gave me a better insight into what my brother has just been going through. (If you're squeamish, don't read on!!) In his case, some stacks of wood fell on him and broke his top jaw (yep, top) away from the rest of his skull, and also broke his eye sockets. Lord knows how he survived that, but there were some unusual side effects like trying to drink and having the liquid come out his nose, because the roof of his mouth was not intact any more.. And going deaf if he tried to speak too much, because the resultant swelling caused some of the tubing to his ears to be squeezed shut...

Fortunately the surgeons seem to have done a great job and he appears to be on the mend. We're on opposite sides of the world so I haven't seen him through this - but I sure hope that you both are now back to 100%.
