Ansley: Tonsils

Ansley had her tonsils out yesterday.

I am SO proud of how brave she was.

Ansley is SUCH a positive little girl,

she always looks for the good in life.

Instead of being scared,

or worried about the pain,

she looked forward to popsicles and ice cream!

We had to be at the surgery center at 6:45.

Ansley was such a good sport.

We went through all the paper work,

Ansley charmed the nurses :)

She suited up,

in her adult sized gown.

It swallowed her.

And came untied 15 times.

The nurse gave her a warm blanket to wrap up in.

After meeting with the doctor,

we walked her to the big doors,

where we parted ways.

She walked so bravely with the nurses.

I was so proud.

And, I tried not to cry,

walking to the waiting room.

15 minutes later.

No really,

they came out to tell us she had done GREAT!

And they would come and get us in a bit to go to recovery with her.

I waited anxiously to go see my girl.

Waking up was a bit rocky.

And she had a mild reaction to the morphine.

But, over all she was amazing.

And we headed home about an hour later.

She has been great.

It is just day 2.

So, obviously, there will still be some ups and downs.

But, 15 popsicles, 2 bowls of ices cream,

3 cups of chicken soup, LOTS of gatorade,

and gogurt later...

Oh, and the tomato soup I begged her not eat.

(worried it would burn)

She is not even complaining.

Praying for a continued speedy recovery.

You are a tough girl Ansley!!
And we love you!!!!!
