Timmy had a tonsillectomy and
adenoidectomy on Dec. 9
th. He had horrible sleep apnea.
Every time he would catch a cold his tonsils would get huge. Two weeks before the surgery the sleep apnea was so bad that he was put on oral steroids to try to shrink the tonsils and
adenoids a little to make him breath better till he had surgery. The surgery went well. The doctor said he had never seen such bad tonsils in a child. He said they looked like an adults tonsils full of scar tissue like someone who had had many infections. I am
thankful that they are finally out.
Here are some pictures of the hospital stay.
Picking out a flavor lip
smackers for the mask to put him out.
Getting put out. This was the worst part for me.
In and out of sleep from the anesthesia.
This was the best part for him. After a few days he was sick of
Popsicles.
Happy on pain medication.

I planned a small party for Timmy this year. Only three friends came. It was very small but it was a good size for him. I also made a gluten, dairy and egg free cake for him due to his many allergies. He would not even try one bite. Oh well. He just stayed with the dairy free ice cream.
Every time someone would ask him what he wanted for his birthday he would say "Geo Trax". This is a train set that he got for Christmas last year. It has extras that can be bought like more track attachments. This is his absolute favorite(or obsession). He looks at the diagram on the instruction manual of the different ways the track can be assembled and he can spend hours assembling and disassembling.
