Tonsils

Emily had an ENT appointment last Wednesday to look at her tonsils. She hasn't ever had strep and only had tonsillitis once that we know, but when we went in for her GI appointment last time they were inflamed and the GI doctor said that if they are chronically inflamed it makes it hard to treat her EE. She sent us to an ENT. The ENT said that her tonsils are quite large and the veins are at the surface and red which is a sign of infection. She said that the amount of sleep Emily gets is too much for her age and that she needs to have them removed. So Emily gets to go in this Friday and have them out. She has to cut her visit with Aunt Rachel and Uncle Tim short because of it. We also will have to postpone our official family fun day for her birthday until after she has recovered. Since her birthday was on Sunday and she is gone this week we were going to celebrate on Saturday after she got home. I'll update more after the surgery is done.
