Sayonara Tonsils

Our little muppet, Scarlet, got her tonsils out in January. This didn't come as a surprise to us. Each ENT appointment (every 6 months since she got tubes at 6 months of age) we check and measure, and consider age and timing. Well, in December, with a clear airway obstruction issue, we knew it was time. The tonsils and the adenoids had to go. We are still getting used to her new voice, but this girl sleeps better than she already did, and snores a lot less! And once we got through those first couple days of meds, the rest was easy breezy.

Our pre-op patient. This was after happy meds, and before she told her ENT that he had a big nose. 

Popsicles for days. Seriously.

Post-op check up...doing great!
