Tonsillectomy

Tomorrow I will be having my tonsils out. Although I’m not thrilled that I’ll be having an operation and suffering for the next two weeks, I will be happy once it is all over–because hopefully I will be a lot healthier.

For the last couple of months I’ve had irritated and swollen tonsils. It drains me throughout the day. In the morning I’m usually OK but they just seem to wear out as the day goes on. Typically when I get sick I tend to hang onto the sickness longer because my tonsils just seem to get infected to easily. I met with an ENT a few weeks ago and this was the solution that we came up with.

So the next week in particular will be the most difficult. I will have nothing to eat but liquids. Cream of Wheat, Malt-O-Meal, Jell-O, Chicken Broth, Water, pop-cicles, Juice and whatever else [ice cream] is easy to deal with on my throat. Hopefully, I will heal quickly.

Anyway, don’t expect me to call or talk to you for a little while.

I’m going out with friends tonight to have a good hearty meal before I can no longer eat solids.

Ta Ta!
