In the mirror
I look at myself in the mirror and I don't recognize myself. It does not happen every time, but I glance at myself and see something strange. I don't see the face I know. The odd thing is I see photos of myself from before the surgery and those photos don't look like what I remember. It is the difference between self image and photography.
I am trying to get used to my face now. It seems like it is still changing, that is the hard point. I only started down this road 18 months ago. It is a really short time in the landscape of my life. I am not sure when I'll feel like I'm seeing my face in the mirror all the time.
