So what's your vision (of my nose?)

The countdown to my nose surgery is winding down. The clock started ticking at 68 days, and as of this moment, we are at 13.

To recap, my nose is being roto-rooted, retooled, and reformulated. A new nose inside and out.

With a pretty good idea of the rooting and retooling, it was with the reformulating in mind that I requested a final meet up with the surgeon, and we did so yesterday.

So what's your vision, doc?

He gave a descriptive, but being a visually dependent sort, we moved into seeing before and after pics of some of his past patients who had similar work done.

His vision is simple: subtle, not monumental changes. Where there is a slight crowning mid-nose, there will be a slight dip. That is basically the outside work summarised.

We reviewed other things of which he should be aware (one that quite surprised him - Max, think of bicycles and that tree what left us laughing) including my need to do a bit of reiki pre-surgery. We discussed amount of time I'll be there (4 hours), and what to expect in the aftermath.

13 days to go, and while I'm naturally apprehensive about surgery, at least now I have a comfort level with all that will be done.
