Little Trooper

We got the results of the sleep test Jade had that I posted about a while ago. Basically she has bad sleep apnea and it was determined that the best course of action would be to have her tonsils and adenoids out. So this past Tuesday at 5:30am we drove up to St. Peter's University Hospital for Jade to have her surgery. The procedure was real quick. She was in and out in about 45 minutes. They usually don't take out your tonsils at such a young age so as a precaution they had her stay over night in the Pediatric ICU. After two long days we came home last night. Jade is healing well and back to her old self.

Here she is before surgery, very happy and has no idea what is about to happen.



When she first came back to us.


She needed a little bit of oxygen just when she first came out.



24 hours later and back to her old self.
