Dylan's Tonsils Are Gone
Isn't he cute in his little surgery outfit?
The ENT told me after the operation that Dylan would likely see a great deal of benefit afterwards because not only were his tonsils so large they were nearly closing off his throat, his adenoid tissue had grown over his nasal septum - virtually occluding his airway there as well. Basically, the kid's lymphatic tissues were conspiring to suffocate him. Geez!
Ben laughs, but he doesn't know, he's probably next in line. I should pre-book his operation now!

wowwy! such excitement! glad that everyone is allllll smiles. I bet the kids love the thought of ice cream dinners again.
And chocolate pudding laced with Tylenol with Codeine and Amoxicillan, which surprisingly makes it taste like a Cherry Cordial...
Fun fact!
Man! I can't believe it- after such a long trip, you had to muster up the energy to prepare so quickly for Dylan's surgery. Crazy! I'm glad it went well, Dylan does look very cute in his surgery attire.
