Day 1 and 2 of tonsillectomy

Yesterday was Bri's T&A (tonsil and adenoids) procedure. We got there at 7:30 in the morning, and the waiting game began. We were scheduled to go second, but due to a brother/sister combo we got bumped to fourth. Blah! They came and got her at 9:30, and Dr. Catton was back to us by 10:15. He said she had done great, and was glad we had this taken care of it. Bri came to us crying. I climbed in bed with her and she went right to sleep. We let her sleep along time. Her oxygen was in the high 80's so they gave her a little flow. She finally woke up all they way and we were able to leave. She was kinda lethargic yesterday, but did very well. She is only taking Tylenol and is handling it well. She did a lot of resting and movie watching. We forced the drinks on her all afternoon/evening. Stac brought her a fun care package,and she was super happy about that. She gave her Spirit, and we watched it twice last night. Julie brought her over some gogurts, granny and grandpa came and visited, and the Laws brought her a milk shake. About 9:45 she went to sleep. She was out! I woke her up every four hours to stay on top of her medicine. She woke up with a dry throat, but after a drink or two she was good to go. Today has been a good day, and she thinks she can do more than what I want her to. She hasn't wanted to drink, but we make her. Jos and the girls brought her a sweet care package, and entertained her for a little while. She gets tired fast, but she still is a little go-er. She's eating popsicles, soup, cottage cheese, and ice cream. She drinks apple juice and Gatorade. She fell asleep tonight, but just woke up crying that she hurt. Right now she is in my lap snoring away, and she has some nasty smelling breath. Hopefully that goes away ASAP! I am so proud of her for how she is dealing with this. We love her and can't wait until she is back to herself!!!! (I can't add pictures for some reason... But I will soon.)
