He's a Trooper!

We are home and Mikie is truly a trooper. He is laying in bed here watching tv with me while I'm on my laptop. We got to the hospital a little early this morning which was good, got up in our room and had to sit and wait. And wait. And a little more... We watched tv for a bit and went to the "playroom" they have set up so that kept Mikie distracted. We finally got called back and then things went quick. They gave him the oral meds that made him loopy and we walked back to the surgery room. I got to hold him on my lap while they put the mask on and his head got really heavy on my shoulder. He was conked and I left the room. I'm glad they let me come "back" with him.

After waiting in the surgery waiting room for a bit, the doc came and said all went well. Mikie's tonsils and adnoids were HUGE and the tubes in his ears will certainly help in the long run. They then called me back to the recovery area and I got to be there when he woke up. I told him I'd be there the whole time so it felt good that I was from eyes shut to back open again :)

We went back to his original room for some rest and juice. Erk and Molly got there and poor Mikie puked, but that helped him feel better. Once he was dressed, he was wheeled (Mol opted to ride along :) to the truck and we headed for home. Erk had to scoot to work for a few meetings this afternoon. It worked well to have Mol come up later to see Mikie, she's a busy bugger!

And now here we sit - Mol is down for a nap and it's about time to get Jack off the bus. I'll try to post some pix later! Thank you for all of your prayers today!
