Surgery

So, I'm such a lousy blogger these days. The same day we stopped the medication, everything went back downhill. I'm so sleepy. And Eleanor is sleepy and super duper crrr-anky all the time. We're just wandering around in varying states of delirium...

Hopefully, our problems are about to be solved, though. Today, I took Eleanor to the ENT doctor. He did an x-ray, and said that her adenoids are 'huge' and that he was surprised she could breathe through her nose at all. He showed me what he was talking about on the x-ray...there really isn't much room at all for air to get through her nasal cavity. So, on Monday, he's taking those bad boys out. He's leaving the tonsils...he said they're fine and that you don't take a two-year-old's tonsils out unless you have to because the recovery is a lot harder than if you just take the adenoids out. (If I told you the surgery was Wednesday, it has now been rescheduled due to some misunderstanding regarding insurance.)

We'll need prayer for the surgery, of course. And for the twelve hours prior to surgery when I can't give Eleanor anything to eat or drink. The eating is not an issue since she's mostly indifferent about food, but the girl does love her milk!

We're doing some fun Halloween stuff this weekend, but I'm not sure if I'll be blogging about it until after the surgery. Thanks for you prayers!
