She'll probably hate me for posting this picture later but she was so out of it, it was funny!

Such a Trooper
Brooke had her tonsils taken out Friday because they were HUGE. She snored loud, had sleep apnea, and choked easily on food because of them. I am SO proud of her. She has been such a big girl. Matt took her bright and early Friday morning and she didn't cry at all. When she woke up after the surgery she just wanted a drink because she was thirsty. They got home about 12:30 (I stayed home with Cole) and she opened her mouth to show me her tonsils and her frog were all gone. (Blair told her she had a frog in her throat one day about a month ago and it has been there ever since) She ate about 4 bowls of soup, some cereal, and some pudding and was just as happy as ever. Yesterday continued with much of the same. Lots of eating and playing. No complaints! You'd never know she just had her tonsils out!! Today has been a little worse... I think she was just worn out. She has been asleep most of the day. Still not much complaining though, she's being such a big girl!

I'm glad that she handled it so well! I got mine out when I was about 4 and I remember wondering why everyone made such a big deal about it. I felt fine. Hope she stays that way. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear that she is feeling pretty good. She really is a trooper.
ReplyDeleteI am glad that she is doing so good. I had my tonsils out in Jr High and I had to be in the hospital for a full day. I remember how sore I was.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great picture! I hope she continues to recover. I hear getting them out as a kid is the only way to go. As an adult, I think it is awful. She's a cutie!
ReplyDeletePoor little thing. :-) But I'm so glad she is doing well with it! I hear it's a lot better to have them taken out while they are young like that!
