Karley and Sydney's Tonsillectomy

Karley and Sydney had their tonsils taken out on Tuesday.  We kept going back and forth trying to decide if this was a good choice.  After praying and thinking of all the reasons why the doctors think they should have them removed we decided to go ahead with the procedure.  The girls both did Awesome! The whole medical team was great.  They were so good to the girls.  They were mindful of a mother trying to do this on her own.  I usually don't have good things to say about military doctors, staff, and procedures.  I think Heavenly Father blessed me with caring and good hearted medical staff.  I know Heavenly Father was showing me and the girls tender mercies throughout the day.

Here is a before picture of the girls a little silly and nervous.

Here is an after with their nurses...

We headed down to the pharmacy and got their meds.

However, these girls have managed their pain well without most of these.  Motrin seems to work great and make them feel better.  They have been drinking lots of water and using do Terra oils.  These oils amaze me!  They have been sucking on On Guard drops.  Then applying Frankincense and Cypress on their necks to help with pain.  

A few of the Beehives brought Karley a smoothie and card.

I have had fun hanging out with them this week.  Karley kept us laughing which hurts them.

We had a dongdaemun outing.

We made cakes one day.  Which they couldn't eat so the piano teacher enjoyed one and the rest of the family enjoyed the other.  

They enjoyed Popsicles, Smoothies and Ice cream.  We watched a lot of movies too!!
