Surgery for Both Kids

June 30, 20161 photos

This is good, I suppose. Molly and Caden after seeing the ENT needed to get there adenoids removed. Which is good, cause they get chronic sinus infections. And Molly, of course, needed a 3rd endoscopy from the GI doctor. So why not have a special day where both our kids are put under and wheeled away for surgery while their parents sit by ourselves and stress...oh yeah...now why isn’t there bars in hospitals?

So, all went well obviously. Expect the fact that the hospital “forgot” to do the lab work for the biopsy on Molly’s upper GI...the whole reason we added this part of the surgery...not cool. And we learned nothing new from the GI work. But Molly also got tubes put in here ears (while we were all here) and that has eliminated her chronic infections.

We also learned that Caden does not take well to anesthesia (this was his first surgery). He spent the whole day sick and unable to keep down even water. Which resulted in us returning to the hospital very late for some IV. Sucked, but we got through it.

Some pictures here.

I am forever grateful that our kids are healthy and that this picture is simply cute.
