Tonsilectomy

It's never a fun decision to put kids through surgery. In fact I fought the idea for over 2 years. Dillon has been healthy and happy boy, but those who know him know that he always has a runny nose. He would always be fighting a cold or we suspected allergies. After visiting 3 ENT (ear, nose, throat) Doctors and having to make a decision of living with snot or doing surgery. Well, this is the what happened.

For a week we have been creative with forts and comfy spots to lay down. We also stalked up on library movies and books to read.



He got some fun stiff to play with from the nurse.



Just after surgery...notice the 3 popcycles. His favorite was the Root Beer slushy.



He had to where his hunting camo to the hospital. He was so excited to see this mural on the wall. Primary Childrens is a wonderful hospital that did an amazing job taking care of him!

  1. So sad to see a little guy like that in pain. I hope he's feeling better now, and hopefully the runny noses will stop and he'll be all-around healthier for it!
