No More Tonsils

After suffering from terrible allergies, sinus infections and headaches, sleep apnea and bouts with strep we finally decided it was time to get rid of Preston's tonsils and adenoids. So it was off to the surgery center. He started getting a little nervous in the waiting room so we passed the time racing on the magnetic sand table.

When it was finally his turn he was loving his new wardrobe!

He wasn't too trilled about the IV but he was a champ getting it put in

He finished off the look with a stylish blue surgery cap and it was off to the OR!

He wasn't quite as pleased upon returning



We made it in and out of the surgery center in 3 hours then it was home to enjoy his new diet. This is what his diet has consisted of for the last 9 days. The kid is turning into nothing but skin and bones.

From the looks of his prescriptions you would think I was taking care of a horse! I have never seen bottles as big as these but they sure did the job!

I couldn't believe how great he was feeling just a few short hours later. He was a little sore but that's why he had the most expensive sucker we will every buy compounded just for him. This bad boy lollipop was his for the small price of $35


After a few days of being home we was getting a little restless. He started going through the dress up box. He called these shots "men in tights!"


After 8 days he finally felt up to going back to school.
