Post-ENT Surgery

Well another surprise.  We arrived at CCHMC at 9:15am as scheduled and registered.  They took us to the back and started vitals, anesthesia came in and questioned why we would be spending the night inpatient.  I told them that I had been asking the same question.  Well to make it short the scheduling nurse had an error in the plans.  Dr. Rutter wanted us to come home today!!!!  I carried Kendra to the induction room, and held her as well as the mask which pushed her strawberry flavored gas to put her to sleep.  Needless to say she had not been real happy since our arrival this morning and continued to fight me and them.  Once she was asleep I laid her on the bed, kissed her cheek and they pushed her into the next room.  By the time I made it to the waiting room and sat down they called my name (SHE WAS DONE)!!!!  Dr Rutter came out gave me ear drops, and said he would see me between 2 and 8 weeks when ever Kendra had time with her upcoming schedule.  He assured me they wouldnt last even though he used the best ones because of her ear shape.  And when ever I was ready we would discuss her tonsils and abnoids but they were not pressing.  So we agreed to leave well enough alone for now since she was not having any real issues with them.  She was awake and screaming for mommy, home, and NO DOCTOR!  I could barely get her dressed and out of there quick enough.  We are now home, and she is playing as usual.  I will post some photos later tonight.....God Bless
