So it's Monday...two days until the teeth come out. To be honest, I wasn't that worried at all until I started reading the literature the hospital sent me. My favourite part?
Specific complications of this operation
- Dry socket - bit gross, but nevermind...
- Retained root - no biggie...
- Damage to nearby teeth - hmmm...
- Sinus problems - fine...
- Broken jaw - ...sorry, what?!
Broken jaw! COME ON! Don't tell me stuff like that! I know they over-inform you so you can't sue anyone if it goes horribly wrong, but can't they be a bit more vague and fluffy? There's a lot to be said for the blissful ignorance of fluff...
ANYWAY, enough tooth talk - I made a new piece this weekend:

Hail, Mary. This necklace is part of my "Guide to Recognising your Saints" collection. This necklace is made from a vintage pendant, hung on vintage chain and adorned with vintage faux pearl.
So what do you think? I'd love to hear your thoughts. Also, if you have any advice for staying in hospital, that would be great. I've never done it before, and I need all the help I can get!
I probably won't be around for a little while, but I promise I'll be back as soon as the Swelling (pun intended) has calmed down.
See you on the other side!
Much love,
Frankie

It'll be fine my dear! How long do you have to be in hospital for? I hope you will be right as rain in time for the Christmas feasts! Lots of love xxx
ReplyDeletep.s. the new piece is really great darling, I love the titles of the piece and collection.
Feel better soon hun! Hope the operation goes well :)
ReplyDeleteYou'll pull through without a hitch! Love the new necklace..I'll be thinking of you and have a Swell time being pampered ;)
ReplyDeleteThe necklace is lovely! We all need some revision when it comes to the saints, I think, so your guide will be very helpful! :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the operation, remember to bring a crossword magazine and an iPod and you'll be in your own little logical, perfect world whatever happens.
Stunning necklace, Frankie!

Lovely pieces- I like the way the pearl strand frames the pendant! I don't have any true tips for being in a hospital but I feel like a stuffed animal could act as a litle buddy while you're in there.
ReplyDeleteBroken jaw....yikes!! That's a bit exteme! I hope you're feeling better my lovely. Have a fabulous Christmas
