Out come the tonsils!

This past Friday Conner had to have his tonsils out. He was pretty apprehensive about it but didn't let us know about it too much. We went to the new Riverton hospital for the procedure and it was nice not to have to drive downtown to Primary's.

Before Conner and I got to play some Madden on the XBox before they took him back for anesthesia. This was nice for both he and I. As you can tell from the before picture, things were rosy.

Before

After

After the surgery the poor guy was in lots of pain and his throat was swollen and super sore. They had him stay there for a little while and then sent him home with some antibiotics and a giant bottle of Lortab. It's like they wanted him to form an addiction, but in their wisdom, it's kept him out of pain and in a better mood.

We're glad everything went well and he's really feeling a lot better a few days later.

No more strep throat, yay!!!

Poor guy - he looks so sad. I hope he is feeling better now.
