Well this was an experience in it's self....I have never had any of my children go through a surgery let alone doing it by myself....but we were faced with abigayl having her Tonsils/adnoids removed since she was having such reoccuring bouts of Strep....(in the end she had it the last 3 times in 9 weeks...) so while going through this we had also decided to see a different eye specialist as the one we had been seeing for the past two years wasn't really getting us any results...so she went and had numerous tests done on her eyes and they concluded it was time for her to go through her first eye surgery..so in all she had a double eye surgery and tonsils/adnoids removed...Luckily she had her surgery performed at CHKD and I was really releived about that.....she went in and in all it took about 1 1/2 hours...I was on pins and needles the whole time but she came out of it just fine...the first night was rough and the week after she wasn't happy about the eye drops that had to be placed in each eye 4 times per day FUN FUN!!! so now we are thankful she has that behind her and she will go back in January for follow ups to see how things are progressing but I can say so far we have not had any strep...YEAH!!!! just her lovely asthma has decided to poke its ugly head and cause issues this winter....we are thankful for the doctors who performed the surgery that it all turned out as good as it did and for god watching over us all...this was as hard on shon as it was me as he was out to sea but I was able to send him pics via my blackberry and email him updates...THANK GOODNESS for technology....
