My gentleman friend, Jason, is having his jaw worked on next week
He has a plastic jaw because he was gay bashed and his attackers kicked him in the head repeatably.His jaw hinge developed a bone spur and he has been in a LOT of pain the last few months. He is heavily medicated.

Well, now they are going to operate on it in 9days and I am so happy! I hate it so that he was hurt like this. :-(

1. wishing Jason the best, Roon
I hope his attackers get theirs. I know a guy who confessed to me he used to gay bash, until a gay man beat the crap out of him. Yes.

4. Yeah, me too..
He suffers from PTSD because of it and is on medication. He lived in a nursing home for a year, that is how bad he was hurt. (not a nursing home, but rehab)

7. That's courage!
No wonder he's got a little PSTD. Openeng an eye in the morning takes balls of iron after something like that....

But we'll get the meat back on his bones!
