Rylee and her cousin Camry both had surgery this past Tues. Rylee had her tonsils removed and Camry had to have a tube removed and a patch put over her ear drum. They both did really well. They gave them some Valium type medicine to help them relax and not be so nervous or upset about going into the operating room. We got quite the kick out of watching them. Rylee kept saying "watch this" and bringing her finger up to her nose and Camry just hiccuped and giggled.
After Rylee woke up, she was a little groggy and tried to pull her IV out a couple of times. We got her to drink a little ice water and we are able to leave the surgery center. I told her she needed to eat a little something and she asked for a corn dog. We got her a Slurpee and some soft bread to have something in her stomach for her pain meds. She ate 8 pieces of bread. When we got home that night, she said that she was tired of sick food (soft foods...you would think a kid would love ice cream, pudding, and Popsicles) and wants to eat real food. Zoey likes the tonsil food diet! I have had to remind her that she has sores in her throat. She has snuck some food like Cheetos that have hurt her throat. She is doing well and will start Pre-K on Tuesday. We will post about that big day!

Why didn't they take her tonsils out at the same time as putting in tubes? I have had two with tubes and I had my tonsils taken out 4 years ago. However I didn't get a cute little cuddly friend out of it. I got 6 weeks of hurting. Lucky girls!!!
Sorry to hear about Rylee! Hope she is healing and feeling better. Love your blog and your post about the gov, has helped settled my nerves a bit. Not knowing anything about her I have doubted the choice. I guess we'll see. I hate the thought of the "other guy" too!! Love you all!
