Re: scared

To Rebecca my name is Jennifer and Im 19 and I
know excactly how you feel. I've had all sorts done to
me including what you've just had I was just 17years
when I had that operation done and I needed braces
afterwards aswell. I've just had them of last october, just
been in again for an operation it was to lengthen my
upper lip I hate mirrors at the moment makes me sick. I
looks better than it did but I wanted it to look a bit
better. Don't worry about the braces there nothing to the
operation I couldn't talk for ages afterwards, its worth
the braces my teeth are so much better I've had a
brace since I was 7, 5 difference ones all together. If
you want to ask me any thing else your more than
welcome to e-mail me
jennifer.meredith@...<br><br>Keep smiling it gets better xxxx
