She had gotten strep throat for the 6 or 7th time in last year and FINALLY the doc said she should go see Dr Beck about getting her tonsils out. We met with her (loved her) and felt really good about the decision. Mackenzie on the other hand was getting very nervous about the whole thing...... But she did awesome when it came down to it! It was kind of a long morning waiting to leave to go, and then waiting to be seen, and then waiting a little bit more for the actually procedure. The nurses and staff were great and made us feel very comfortable. I'm so grateful the experience was so lovely. I can say lovely since I wasn't the one getting my throat cut, but as the mother, it was all very pleasant.
We were getting pretty bored in the room waiting for the surgery so I was taking pictures from my phone to take up time.
She is such an amazing patient when she isn't feeling good. She has had a wonderful recovery so far and is on her way to feeling her best soon I just know it! Even ready for school again in the next few days.
Good job Mackenzie for being such an awesome patient! You are a rock star!
(FYI.....I glanced inside her mouth and yoiks is it gross!!!)
