Britt gets her tonsils out

Dec 18, big surgery day for Britt with hopes of ridding her of strep and tonsillitis issues in the future. She slept in a bit while we had coffee and a co-worker of Sheldon's stopped to join us. He bought black beauty, our little '84 Yamaha Bravo skidoo. He has 3 little kids who will get even more years use out of it.

I painted the frame another coat before we loaded up and were off to the city by 10:30. We got her check ed in and she headed in right around slated surgery time of 1:30. During her surgery we went down for lunch and saw they had Santa, Mrs Claus and 6 real life reindeer touring around the hospital grounds. Such a great sight for these kids.

 Sheldon watching Expendables 56, ok actually 3.. I opted out of this time waster ;)

She was back in her room by 3 and the rest of the day was spent monitoring her vitals and eating Popsicles for her, Sheldon and I got in an episode of SOA but it was a bit of a challenge with bright lights and busy place. Shaina had stopped at the house after work and let Coco out and Grady stopped by around supper time and let the 2 other dogs into the garage, thanks guys!!

lots of popscicles and a wee bit of rest

She was discharged just after 9, the 2nd last surgery patient on the unit. We made a stop at Superstore to load up on pudding and Popsicles while Sheldon ran to Tims to get us a tea and supper. Time to head home after a long day in the hospital. Once tucked in Britt stayed up to get her pills before bed. We watched another SOA on the big TV, much better, before I gave her her pills and we all got some sleep.

The dogs had other ideas wanting to go out after 5, I even had to get dressed up to go retrieve Lola but she was at the door by the time I got dressed, ha. I stayed up and gave Britt her 6 am dose and crawled back into bed!
