I have a hole in my chin/jaw. Hurts like hell. I had oral surgery yesterday and they sent the shit in the hole to pathology in boston. It looks like I have gone 15 rounds with Mike Tyson in his prime. Huge fat lip and my face is bruised beyond recognition.

James Richardson I have something called Langerhans cell Histiocytosis............. That is what what I was told today by the oral surgeron, Killian McCarthy.
He also told me that Dr. Dobieski has to order me a buch of tests to see if it is in any other bone areas.....
I also have to go back and have Dr. McCarthy operate more on my chin area but at least this time I will be put to sleep.
From what I can gather from the internet, (Thank God Al Gore invented that thing) lol...., it is really rare and a form of cancer.
Don't worry about me.

Duration improving

With the help of my physical therapist and my prosthetist lengthening my artificial leg by 3/8 of inch, I can now walk for 10 minutes without stopping for a rest break.  Quitting tasty, delicious,  healthy, mouthwatering smokes might have something to do with it as well.  I just wish Ms. Merrick could see me now.

Huge improvement

I saw my prothetist yesterday and he adjusted my prosthesis so I grew 3/8 of an inch and it looks much better now when I walk for my left shoulder no longer dips down. He was really impressed with my walking gate and flow. I showed him all the exercises that my PT is making me do and he couldn't get over how much I have improved in the 6 weeks since I have seen him. I don't really see the difference because I see myself everyday........
