Hallie's Tubes


What mom has to go through 2 of her kids getting tubes in the same week.... most likely the one writing this post! Barry's were Monday and now Hallie got them out Thursday,along with her adenoids. Hers was a little more rough than Barry's but I think it was cause she was older and could understand that she had to go to the Hospital. She did great though. Lots of tears at the beginning but then she decided to be brave and that was the end of the tears. Of course she was still terrified to leave me but no tears.
I am so proud of her for being so brave. The Doctor came back after the surgery and said she had a hard time coming out of the anesthetics and had to be given 2 or 3 breathing treatments cause her lungs closed up. Scare me to death. Good thing they don't let the moms in the room with them cause I would have been screaming and freaking out. But all was good and she came back to me and has been cuddling me ever since. I love that girl! The only thing she cried for was to go home. The nurse told her she had to drink lots and go to the bathroom before she could. She downed 3 apple juices and was peeing within the hour. We went home a lot faster than anyone else there!
She couldn't believe how loud everyone was talking when she got done. She is glad to have her hearing back and glad she doesn't have to get tubes again.

You both are troopers! I don't know how you did two surgeries in the same week!! Hallie is super brave! So glad everything went so well, and think it is funny she thinks everyone talks loud.

I'm trying not to cry reading this. I'm so glad she's ok and that they don't let mom's in because I would freak out too.

Ok so I thought I was the only one tearing up reading this. You are an amazing mom and not only are the kids brave but you are too! So scary to have to go through all of that in a single week. Love you!!!!

When Rylan had his adnoids removed he had this nasty smell that came from removing them. You guys are troopers. Two in one week. Hope all are going to be well now in the Warner Family! :) How you feeling Bree?
