Ok so tomorrow on the 18th Lilly will go in to surgery to have her tonsils and adenoids removed, it will be a 2 hour surgery.
4 of her doctors agree this is something that needs to be done. It should help with her sleep apnea, and therefor she will not be lethargic during the day, it will also help with the reoccurring throat infections and improve her chances of going back to school and being able to be less quarantined.

There is a chance that she will have to stay over night in the hospital due to her age, but they are pretty confident she will go home after the surgery is done.
Recovery is 2 to 3 weeks, we have special instructions on pain management and what she can and can not eat. Lilly is excited about this actually because the doctor told her she will need to eat a lot of ice pops, icecream and cool drinks.

About 4 weeks after the surgery she will see Dr. Waseem and have some blood work done, check her ANA levels and see how her symptoms are.
Positive thoughts for miss Lilly tomorrow!!
