Goodbye ToNsIlS...Hello SLEEP!!!


The progression from that morning to the aftermath of surgery...she was a trooper! It was a quick procedure...He took her tonsils and her adenoids...her adenoids were actually BIGGER than her tonsils! Poor thing couldn't breath out of her nose. Her tummy was upset afterward, the ride from the bed to the wheelchair made her lose what little stuff she had in there. She fevered, she puked, she ate lots of popsicles, but mostly ice water...she never let go of the dog that Grandma picked out for her though. Her voice changed, but the biggest difference...she can breath!!! I listen to her sleep because she doesn't snore anymore and she is so quiet, that I have to check on her! YEAH!!! She was a little freaked out that when she puked it actually came out of her nose...that had never happened before!! Just wait until she laughs so hard it comes out of her nose, that will be a new one for her! I'm looking forward to seeing if her getting restful sleep is going to help other matters, like behavior and focusing...time will tell!
