Today was important because I think it has been sort of a turning point for me. I can barely notice my braces anymore (I can feel the pressure still and a slight ache but they no longer feel foreign in my mouth), especially after my orthodontist managed to snip the wire that was shredding my mouth to pieces. Seriously, as soon as he snipped the wire, sweet relief literally flooded through me and the pain was gone! And my mouth hasn't bled at all today.
He also gave me permission to get my wisdom tooth out, so I managed to make an appointment with my dentist, who took one look and sent me to radiology, who took x-rays and sent me back. When my dentist looked at and showed me my x-rays he said that the abscess needs to be treated with antibiotics first, so he can actually get to the tooth. He also said that it was the abscess that was causing the pain, so once that was dealt with I wouldn't be bothered by my tooth, but eventually I will be, so he's taking it out on October 28th 2014 (in about four weeks). Until then, I'm on antibiotics. Blegh.
Also, last night I tried to blend spaghetti bolognese. I made actual bolognese, like, for a normal person, then blended it for me. It was a thick disgusting paste. Worst idea ever.
So the easiest thing I've found to do is to blend store-bought soups. I mean, you can make your own soups I guess (it'd be healthier), but remember that you are always hungry when you're on a liquid diet and you'll probably starve in the time it takes to prepare, cook and blend homemade soup. Or I'm just lazy.
Right, so I'm going to wrap it up there, just thought I'd fill you in.

This is a smart blog. I mean it. You have so much knowledge about this issue, and so much passion. You also know how to make people rally behind it, obviously from the responses. Lixdent.es
