Goodbye Adenoids

Olivia said goodbye to her adenoids today. They were almost completely blocking her nasal passage. They were giving her a lot of trouble - constant congestion, snoring, sleep apnea. It was time for them to go.

Check out my cool PJs.

Right after this, Livi got to drink some "silly juice" and wait for the doctor to get there. She was so silly and loopy. The nurses were cracking up. As soon as the doctor got there they took her for her surgery.

We met her in recovery about an hour later. They had given her something to help her sleep off the anesthesia since she started screaming when she woke up. She looked pretty pitiful with all her montiors and IV. She did great though. She did whine a lot as she was waking up. She finally really woke up and kept saying she wanted to go home and she wanted to take all the stuff (IV and monitors) off of her.

We had to hang out there for 3 hours. She had some ice and a popsicle while we waited. She was much happier when we were able to hold her. Overall she did pretty good. She was glad when we finally got home and she was able to get comfortable.
