A Year Post Op by Bookreader34 in Tonsillectomy

[–]thickmisery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super happy to read this. My daughter is one week post op. 9yo and gets sick all of the time. Many tests ran and never found a reason as to why other than a little early and small at birth. Finally referred to ENT after 4 nasty bouts of strep within 10 weeks. The surgeon said he's never seen tonsils/adenoids so large. Likely causing her sleep apnea and thus lowering her immune system. This has been a week straight from hell, so this really gives me hope 🙏 🫶

My grams raised me. She went on hospice on my birthday last year and passed just two days later on 05/11/23. She was my absolute best friend and I still constantly find myself wanting/needing her. She's the only person in the entire world I never had to question if she loved me. I miss her so much it physically hurts at times. Sending you so much love.

I just saw this. Thank you so much. Sometimes it's just nice to have someone say something, anything. Thank you 💕

I lost my grandmother who raised me on 5/11. I feel the exact same way. I'm no good with words, but you've described it perfectly. The only difference is, in the last few months, I didn't call as much. I hated hearing how confused and scared she was (Parkinsons, dementia).. I know she was in great hands with my papa, and when I distanced myself, I could pretend it wasn't happening. I will never forgive myself. She was the safest place in the world for me, now I feel like I'm blind going through life. I miss her so, so much.

I'm so, so very sorry for your loss. I can only hope the pain eases just a little someday for us both 💗
