Andy had to have his tonsils out last week. He was getting strep throat at least 3 times a year and missing so much school I finally just took him to an ENT. He looked into Andy's throat said "does your throat hurt right now?" Andy said "No?" The Dr said "OK we are taking those tonsils out." So a couple days later we headed to the hospital.
| When we checked in the Nurse insisted that he get a stuffed animal...he wore it around his neck the whole time |
| Checking out his cool socks! |
| Almost ready for surgery |
| Just out of surgery....feeling good (lots of drugs) |
| Eating his second Popsicle |
| Looking at his HUGE tonsils. They should be the size of a pea not a walnut! |
| Happy boy on the way home....still not feeling the pain! |
| One week later.... |
| and 14 pounds lighter....but still trying to be funny! |
We are hoping that having his tonsils out will help him to feel better. He uses an inhaler when he plays soccer, it will be interesting to see if he still needs it after removing the gigantic tonsils out of his throat!
