ENT update

Sorry it took so long to post, we went to my parents after the appointment. Well she will be having the surgery on August 20th. That works out really well because they said after two weeks she should be completely healed and that still gives us two more weeks before our trip to Disney to make sure. The nurse was impressed with their size!! She'll be going to Children's Hospital and spending at least one night. I get to be in the room where she goes to sleep and I can stay until she is asleep. I then will be in the recovery room when she wakes up, so she's never awake and I'm not there. I can also stay overnight with her. She is also doing the adenoids. I was a bit upset when they said her voice will probably sound different from now on. The Dr. said that she could tell her tonsils were big just by the way she talked. She had her say "I like ice cream" and that sealed it for her. She said it sounded like she was talking with marbles in her mouth. That kind of surprised me, I hadn't noticed that before, Sonya have you? At least she'll be able to breathe better at night. When the Dr examined her she said it looked like her throat was a big red and took a strep swab to check and sure enough it came back positive. I can't explain that either. She doesn't have a fever, doesn't complain of it hurting, doesn't even stop eating or drinking. I don't know why it came back positive. My mom thinks it was a false positive. I don't know. I think I'll look that up tonight on the web!! So she's on amoxicillin now anyway, just in case. I think she's fine. If anyone knows Abby, they know she would never not tell us if she felt even the slightest bit bad and she hasn't mentioned it. Well I think that's all for now, thanks for thinking of us today!
