round two

So about 2 weeks ago Leith was supposed to have his tonsils removed after several years of chronic strep and sleepless nights due to insane amounts of snoring. Unfortunately, it had rained pretty badly in San Diego that week and this Thursday morning was no different. So there we were, Leith in his hospital gown, cap, and booties with his IV steadily running and the power went out! Thankfully the backup generator came on but was not enough to handle the start of Leith's surgery so we were very politely sent home...with his tonsils. Thanks to Leith's diligent calls and a special request email to the surgeon, yesterday those dreadful tonsils were removed! Round two was successful! He is home recovering now, enjoying his percocet-induced naps followed by endless bowls of jello, raman soup, and cans of protein shakes. Hopefully his recovery is quick and as pain free as possible. Thanks to all of you who prayed for him yesterday as he went under the knife. His beloved tonsils are at kaiser where they belong. Victory!
