Well, tomorrow I am going to have a surgery. It was originally supposed to be a surgery where I was getting a cyst (a bump) on my ear removed. I am still getting it removed, but I am now getting my tonsils and possibly adenoids removed- all in the same surgery! On the bright side, that peppermint flavored ice cream is in season.
You are probably wondering how I wound up in a 3-in-1 surgery. Well, after the doctor took a look at my cyst, he was noticing that my voice was more or less raspy. Upon that he took a look at my tonsils and a surprised expression sprang up on his face. That surprise was that my tonsils took up enough space so that less than a third of my rear throat was blocked by my tonsils. They have always been big like that. After that he asked if I took longer to eat than everyone else, which I do. I also take rather large bites during meals, especially if I like the food.
Of course, having to recover from the surgery presents a problem. My surgery is on the 14th and my parents are planning to take me to the Polar Express on the 17th. Furthermore, I have a violin/viola recital on the 19th. I think I will be able to manage. A sore throat (noncontagious) shouldn't affect riding on a train or my violin/viola playing.
Sorry to hear that you have to have these surgeries done Remington, you will be in my thoughts and prayers this week and i hope it is a healthy and speedy recovery for you. Love you so much!~Aunt Becky
