Ron is going under the knife tomorrow

Anne: you and Ron will be in my thoughts.

I had this done when I was11, piece of cake, plus you ge spoiled, lot of ice cream and other treats

Sending healing thoughts and prayers that Ron makes a quick and great recovery from his surgery.

Oh Poor Ron. He's definitly in my thoughts..

(((HUGS))) Hope all goes well.

Love, thoughts and prayers for today.

Anne, it's so true what's been said that children bounce back so quickly! After this procedure, Ron is going to feel so much better! Your family is in my prayers today for Ron to have an uneventful surgury and a speedy recovery and for you to feel peace and not worry.

We're back!!!
Phew - what a day!
Ron ended up having only his adenoids taken out. The doctor said the adenoids were so large, he thinks they have been solely responsible for the obstruction - so he didn't touch the tonsils themselves.
Ron was very brave. He had nothing to eat or drink since last night and I was sure that that in itself would make him cranky in the morning. But he handled being in the hospital very well and was in high spirits the whole morning. He was smiling up to the point when they actually put the mask with the anasthetic over his face - then he panicked and cried it took a couple of minutes (might have been shorter but seemes longer to me) for him to go under. The operation itself took about 15 minutes. I was with him up to the point when he was anasthesizes - then we waited for him outside. He took a while to wake up. First half an hour he was confused and crying. Then he fell asleep for 2 hours. Then woke up feeling slightly better and had his first ice cream

He is very sleepy. He fell asleep in the car on the way back home and he's in bed right now.

Thank you everyone for your good vibes, thoughts and prayers! They are much appreciated! I was thinking about you guys while I was waiting for him to wake up - and it helped a lot.

I'm attaching a few pics from today. The first two are from before the procedure - you can see what a good mood he was in. The third is an "after" picture

Awww I just want to cuddle Ron and put a smile back on his cute face.

I am glad that it went well. I didn't know that the procedure only takes 15 mins and that you can be home the same day - the wonders of technology!

Yay!!!
I am so glad to hear he made it through everything ok
What a brave little boy you have there, and a little cutie at that!

Awwww, what a brave little guy. Here's hoping he feels better from the op soon. In the mean time, it's ice-cream all the way!

YESSSSS!!!

So glad all is well. Hope Ron's feeling 100% soon, and in the meantime enjoys all his ice cream HUGS for you both.

Lots of love and hugs to you Anne and Ron. Glad it is all over for the both of you. Enjoy your ice cream Ron.

Similar to me. Makes me wan to cuddle him a while.

Ron enjoy your Ice Cream. I suggest Blue Bunny.

Glad to hear it went well, and that he's already home. Best wishes for a rapid recovery, Ron!

Awww, he's precious! Poor little guy! Hope he's feeling much better soon.

So happy the procedure went so smoothly! Wha a sweet little boy he is. He'll feel great and be back to himself in no time! Thanks for the update!

I am so glad everything went well and may I say Ron was a very brave boy

We are all so proud of you Ron. You're a fine brave boy, and we are so pleased that all is well.

Feel better Ron...lots of fluids...not just ice cream!
And Anne love that beautiful mop of hair...I'm jealous!
If I could "Caption This" for that last photo of Ron it would be this:

"They tried to sell me some story that the mask was for Halloween...what do they think I was, BORN YESTERDAY!"
