My son Joe, some of you know him as Squirrelhunter91 on this board, is going in for a Tonsillectomy; and to have his adenoids removed. It is relatively a minor procedure, but it is still in the hospital with him under sedation.

I think he will be fine, but a few prayers his way can't hurt.

He did not want me to post about it, but being the Dad I am OUR Realtree family should know;).

I'll give an update when we return home, it is ambulatory so we should be back this afternoon.

I can attest to the "younger the better" wise tale. It is true. I had mine our Aug. 2007 at the age of 33..............boy did that suck!!! If they give him any pain meds in the "codone" family, be watchful. Oxycodone really A young guy should be able to get away with Extra Strength Acetominephin (Tylenol).

Good luck to him.

People always say "good luck" when it comes to surgery. My standard answer to that is, "thnanks, but hopefully luck won't play a part..." :D

He'll do fine dad. Hope it all works out. Go buy him some of his favorite ice cream. :cool:

....yeah,I agree.... I stopped saying "good luck" when I heard that the word "luck" origionates from "Lucifer":eek:-

......prayers from Alaska for Joe's smooth procedure and recovery, Anthony....

Joe is home and seems to be doing OK.

Thanks everyone for the prayers. He is in bed out cold, sleeping with his mouth open. Now, with a house full of boys, we have a lot of fun when one of us gets caught sleeping with our mouths open:D. But Joe will get a pass this time, and not get a mouth full of feathers or whip cream which is usually the norm. Yes, we torture here:eek:. The Geneva convention means nothing to us.:p

I have to tell ya, the nurses in the hospital we were at, Good Samaritan,Suffern,NY were incredible. So personable and caring beyond belief. I felt like I knew them. The Dr. also was aces.

Again everyone...thanks for your well wishes.

I will pass them them on to Joe.

I am relieved...my boy is home OK.
