Injury update!

I have had a broken jaw since Friday, and have undergone surgery and have been released from the hospital. I am getting my "workouts" by walking, because that is all I am allowed to do right now.

Here's the low-down:

My jaw is broken in 2 places, and badly. My lower jaw bone is literally in 3 separate pieces and is being held together by wire that is in my gums and wrapped through all of my teeth--it's a hot mess.

My face and neck have no real serious damage other than a significant amount of cuts and bruises (Not to mention swelling about the size of a softball).

Because I am conceited and self-conscious I have waited to go back to class, because I am embarrassed of how gruesome I look. My swelling has gone down enough that tomorrow I am willing to show my face.

As far as track goes:

I am medically red shirted for indoor. I don't really know if I am going to take the extra indoor season yet or not. There is a lot to think about, but I have a lot of time to think about it.

I can begin working out in about a week or 2. I have to be weened off of my pain medication (which may take a while) before I can workout. The downside is that I am losing weight at a rapid pace and I need to keep my nutrition up if I plan on training. I also am going to have issues breathing because I cannot open my mouth.

Kevin--help me!
