Adenoids Out

We had Will's appointment at Seattle Children's Hospital today. The doctor highly recommended that we have Will's adenoids removed. They aren't just englarged, the are really enlarged. It's a low risk procedure with a very big payoff of getting off this sick rollercoaster we've been on, so we agreed. The biggest surprise was, after waiting three months for this appointment, we are now scheduled for the surgery next Wednesday. Wow.

I know in the scheme of things, this is a minor procedure and not really anything to get riled about, but. . . he's my bay-bee. I am hormonal. I am upset. When we pulled up to the hospital today, he started saying, "Buh-bye" in the scared way he does when he doesn't want to stay someplace. So, I anticipate that next week and how upsetting it will be next week when we go there and have to hand him over to the OR staff. I just can't even think about it for right now.

I also got my urine test results back from last week's OB appointment and I do have protein in my urine again. I am not that concerned about it, since this also happened about the same time in the pregnancy with Will and it never turned into anything serious. Of course, I was able to take it much easier last time around once I quit working. I don't think Will is going to allow me that luxury this time! Especially when he's recovering from surgery. My days of taking it easy and putting my feet up are long over (and I'm glad for it).
