Osteoarthritis

I went to the Mayo Clinic about a week ago and I got some news to share.  I spoke with the surgeon and he confirmed that I have a pretty bad case of osteoarthritis in both of my jaw joints.  The arthritis is not common in young people so it was determined that one or all of the three jaw surgeries I've had was the cause.  Dr. Keller wants to do surgery in 6-8 weeks but I have school then so we are planning for it to be during spring break in March.  I am both excitied and nervous.  I'm excited because this may get rid of my pain!  I am nervous because there is a chance that my pain could stay the same or get worse.  I am just praying for it to work!
