no more tonsils...

Last Monday Mackenzie had her troublesome tonsils removed. We checked in at the hospital at 7am and by 8am she was undergoing the surgery. After the longest hour of my life they came and got me to see her in recovery. She was sleeping and seemed fine. She had her Buzz bear (that Uncle Darren gave her) with her throughout the operation and he still has the arm and leg bands from the hospital attached. Everything went very smoothly with the surgery and by all accounts she was back to her old self within a week. I'm amazed at how quickly she has recovered. She was such a great patient, she never once compained about having a sore throat. I have noticed a real difference with her sleeping. She doesn't snore like she used to and seems to have a more restful sleep. Let's hope this puts an end to all of the sickness and antibiotics that she has endured over the past 18 months.
