Slowly but Surely

Day 2 of the recovery and things are going pretty well.  Her pain seems manageable thanks to her gigantic bottle of Percocet (see picture below).  She has been doing a lot of sleeping and watching videos and today had enough energy to work on a craft project and play Polly Pockets.  The need for the procedure was again affirmed as necessary after the ENT and anesthesiologist told us that her adenoids were in the top 1% for size and that they had made their way all the way in to her nose.  My little pixie smelled an M&M today and said it was the best thing she had ever smelled.  I guess when your nose is filled with adenoids your sniffer doesn't function at capacity.  Yeah for delicious smelling M&M's, resilient kids who recover quickly and all the medical staff that were so good to us! 

E Man is taking his home health role pretty seriously.



When Kennedy came out of surgery the hospital staff had her stuffed otter, Ollie, all dressed in scrubs.  Ollie got her tonsils out too :)
