Addie Had Surgery!



Well Addie had her surgery on Thursday. This is the first chance I have had to sit down at the computer without a little body with me. It went ok. It took 45 min longer than they thought it would so that was nerve racking waiting! She was whimpering so sadly when they brought her out, and she had a little oxygen mask on. They had to keep giving her Morphine to help until she woke up enough to take Loratab. It was so hard to see her in so much pain. Nurse finally let me sit and holder while she finished waking up. Took her a little longer than normal to do it and she had to stay on oxygen the entire time. Dr came and spoke with us. He said her tonsils were HUGE. He thought maybe she had grown a third one and that that might have been some of the problem. There wasn't. He asked if she had sleep abnia, and told us she probably did and that we can expect her to sleep better from now on!!! WAHU! So we got to take her home the first day which was great because we were in the hospital for 3 days with Maisies tonsils. She is doing ok. Hard to get her to drink, hates taking her meds and we have to use a syringe to squirt liquid down her most of the time to prevent dehydration. First night was rough. Last night was better. Hoping she goes to her bed tonight. Crappy way to spend her birthday though. Going to go make her a cake soon! You should hear the funny things this little drugged girl says. This am it was Daddy has a big nose, Daddy has a big head....... glazed eyes and fell back to sleep.
