Chase goes under the knife (yikes...that sounds way worse than saying he is having surgery!) on the morning of New Years Eve to have his tonsils and adenoids removed, so please keep us in your thoughts and prayers for a smooth procedure and a speedy recovery filled with Popsicles, Slurpee's and jello!!
Want to know what I am the most nervous about, post-procedure? The pain medication they are prescribing for my Chase-monster is Tylenol with Codeine...you know what that does to me??? Remember Magda the old lady in There's Something about Mary when she gets all hopped up on something??

Where she's running around like a crazy person vacuuming and lifting up the couches? That's me...minus the vacuuming!!! OK, and minus the little dog and leather face, but you get the idea. Man! I'm bummed that I couldn't find a picture of Magda lifting the couch...hopefully someone out there gets my reference...Carol!?!?! Anyone?!?!?!
All joking aside, if you aren't going to be around, please keep us in your thoughts and prayers...it's a pretty painful recovery for our little guy, but he will be better off in the end.
WARNING...Really Gross Picture of what Chase's throat looks like...EVERY DAY!!! Sometimes worse! The Dr' says his tonsils are constantly golf-ball sized...and in a 3 year old's throat, or anyone's throat for that matter...not fun!

we will totally be praying for you guys. Let us know how he does. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. We got your card today!! :)
Good luck. Derek had his adenoids removed when he was 2. The recovery was about 1 day for him to be back to running around, but really it was 2 days before he felt like eating right. Best wishes and Happy New Year.
i hope it went okay! update, please. I just went to the doctor for the 3rd time for this pesky ear infection and on top of a shot in the butt was told to get my adenoids out. woohoo looks like i'll be joining chase soon :)-
