Tonsils

I honestly don't know why we even have tonsils. They are bothersome and we seem healthier after they are removed, for the most part. Newt got his taken out on July 10th. We spent the night in Denver at the hospital and came home the next morning. He started out doing really well then around Tuesday he started with the "I don't want my medicine" and "I don't want to talk or drink." By Thursday we were at the Dr. office with an IV for re hydration and morphine for pain. We were told to do tough love and sit him at the kitchen table with nothing but 8 oz. of water. Every hour he drank water or juice. He is much better now and talking again. He is on his way to being 100%. So, besides having company twice this last week and Bill's Aunt Fay being in the hospital we have gotten Newt on the road to recovery. Thank goodness. Love and Peace.
