Tonsils Begone

The sleep study Wade had done in April indicated that he has moderate obstructive sleep apnea.  The recommendation was to remove his tonsils which have always been borderline large, especially in comparison to his small airways.  

So Tuesday was "Good-bye Tonsils Day".


Waiting for the cotton candy sleepy medicine.


Before tonsillectomy---happy!


After tonsillectomy--not happy!


At home--before Cousin Kari came to visit.


At home--after Cousin Kari!  Much better!


Playing doctor with the new medical kit from therapist friends.


Yes, he has a heart!


Tonsils versus no tonsils


Hurting again!  


Yogurt pops from a kind auntie help to make life bearable
. . . even when you fall asleep before you get started.
