My three year old grandson had his tonsils and adenoids out last Friday. The recovery is going reasonably well, but slower than anticipated. On the same day and just previous to the tonsillectomy, the nine month old grandson had tubes put in his ears. His recovery went very well. He was back to his old self in just a couple of hours. I wouldn't have thought that one day I would see surgery as less invasive than anti-biotics, but I am there now.
On another note: It is such a blessing to live where I live, in the time that I live and to live surrounded by so many wonderful people. God is good to me- all the time. The leaves are reaching their peak of color in NE Wyoming (and in some places may be past their peak). If you have a chance to get out and see the colors, do so! Every fall I am reminded of a time when my oldest son came to the clothesline in tears. He was sobbing and told me that he didn't want to go to heaven. When I asked what had him so upset, he told me that the Sunday School lesson the previous day had been about heaven. The teacher had told him that in heaven, the streets are paved in gold. He didn't like paved roads- he "kinda liked dirt". I assured him that God would probably have some dirt in heaven, too. Several days later, we were taking a fall drive. The quaking aspen were a beautiful gold and the dirt road was literally covered in leaves, and more were slowly falling (much like softly falling snow). Rusty exclaimed from the backseat, "Mom! the street is paved in gold!" What a beatiful insight into God's care. He gave my small son a reason to look forward to heaven. Have a blessed day.
