Anah had her tonsils out on Feb.20. Her surgery time wasn't until 1:15pm. What a long time for a little girl to wait with no food or drink! She only asked in the car for food and drink. She was "very, very thirsty!"
Anah did pretty good waiting to have the surgery. When it came time to go back to surgery she wasn't so sure about what was going on. She was very strong-willed and would not go under very easily. I stood by her as they tried to put her to sleep so they could get an IV in her, and the anesthiologist had to double check and make sure the gas was on because it was taking so long for her to go to sleep.
We were brought into the recovery room and we waited, and waited, and waited. She did not want to wake up. She slept for quite a while and we finally got her transferred to the Outpatient center. She then slept more and at 5:15 she finally woke up. She ate a popsicle and then didn't feel so hot. So they gave her more meds and she slept again. We had to move rooms again and then I finally got her to wake up and bribed her to drink so we could get out of the hospital.
We got home and grandma and grandpa were there waiting for her. She sat on grandma's lap and ate a popsicle. She showed Carter her band-aid where her IV was. Then it was off to bed.
