So Jillian had her tonsils and adenoids removed yesterday morning. I’ll have a longer post in a few days, but I wanted to share one thing.
She is amazing.
In recovery as the anesthesia wore off my baby, who was just an hour before dancing lovely ballet dance for the Drs, in her backwards hospital gown, became a beast! I thought she was going to thrash her way out of my arms! Thankfully they gave her some meds that calmed her down a bit. Three different times! It was heartbreaking. Absolutely heartbreaking.
It gets better.
After round three it got much better. And a few short minutes later they wheeled a little boy next to her who very quickly woke up in the same wild manor Jillian did. The look of fear in her eyes! I had to giggle. She was actually worse then that guy. I leaned in close to her and told her that he was still sorta sleeping and once his medicine wore off he’d be better. Then she repeated, “Awe buddy! Ith okay! Ith the medicine it’d be okay soon. Ith okay.”
My heart burst in a zillion pieces.
Kids are Resilient.
