I really hope the smooth ride continues for you, I reckon some slushy ice-cream is a good shout in this hot weather...?<br /><br />My next appointment in September he's gonna take some moulds and show the surgeon as I'm more or less done with bracework, I'm hoping (optimistically?!) that I'll be under the knife in 6 months...well that's what I'm clinging onto anyway.<br /><br />Can't wait to see how you progress, must be SO exciting :D<br /><br />BIG SMILES<br /><br />xsarahPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09130849677133733006noreply@blogger.com
