Stronger Than You Think

This little boy is amazing. He had his 11th, 12th and 13th surgeries today. A tonsilectomy, a partial adnoidectomy and a supraglotoplasty!  So they took out his tonsils, part of his adnoids and apparently some extra tissue that surrounded his voicebox that was causing his airway to be completely obstructed when he would take a deep breath. No wonder he sounded so awful when he slept!

Now this little boy has been through quiet enough already in his short two and a half years but as always he has been such a good sport and surprisingly in quite good spirits.

He is recovering well and expected to go home in the morning.
