Tonsil Update



Well, I spoke too soon in the last post.... Thursday after surgery we were back in the hospital for an IV - fluids. Hospitals are just no fun, especially with sick kids! She only had to stay a few hours and managed to pull out fer IV. They said if she would drink/eat 8 ounces in 1 hour we could go home vs. putting the IV back. Luckily I had the Dora sticker book with me, one drink for one sticker. She loved the Jell-O and ate about 4 oz of just that, so we didn't have to stay! It was a long recovery and took almost 2 weeks, but she is now back to normal and breathing better already. Her voice even changed.... more than I thought it would!
Her poor hands were both bruised for about a week.
