Laurin's Surgery

Laurin's tonsillectomy/adenoidectomy went well yesterday. We checked in at Cook Children's around 7:10 (a little early) and everything stayed right on schedule. It was her first time in a hospital so finding out about all the "surgery" things was a little scary. But once she had some "giggle juice" in her, all was well. It took her a little longer than usual to come out of the anesthesia, but it was all fine. They had to remove a loose tooth and the tooth fairy visited her there at the hospital. When she woke up from surgery, she had a dollar:-) The quilt she made (Christmas gift from Linda) was the hit of the surgery floor. Everyone was so impressed.
Now she is home from school for 5-6 days and just resting and recuperating. Scrambled eggs and jello seem to be the food of choice.
