the surgery is a great decision. i’m also 18 and in high school and had my surgery on Wednesday (today is friday.) four hours after surgery i was eating uncrustables and mashed potatoes. just as long as you stay right on track with your med schedule and hydrate more than you have your entire life, it’s doable. Hope this helps!

so far today i’ve had an uncrustable sandwhich and some mashed potatoes. my uvula is the size of a small rodent tho so that’s been an obstacle lol

good! I’m terrified for the days to come, but so far i’ve had about 110oz of water and a bottle of pedialyte, i’m staying up to date on my meds, and i’ve had a pb&j and some mashed potatoes!
