6/30-10/7/26 | 100 days in 1 minute
I tried my best to take one photo each day, from the day before my upper jaw surgery until 100 days after.
Standing in front of my bathroom door (the best backdrop I could muster up) became a part of my daily routine. Most days.
I missed a few days here and there, and it became more challenging to keep up with this once I headed back to work.
Still, I'm glad I stuck with it. It's incredible how much healing and progress can happen in what felt like no time at all.
The bruising slowly faded. The swelling gradually went down. The fluid finally cleared from my sinuses. And my smile slowly began to reappear. ☺️
I'm so grateful for how well things have gone during this huge chapter of my life. I'm even more grateful for the incredible people who've helped make this such a positive experience for me, and have shown their support along the way.
While my journey isn't yet complete, I feel like I've finally turned a page and can now move on to the next chapter, one day at a time...
