Tomorrow Timo is having a fairly simple surgery to remove his tonsils and adenoids. This is something we've been debating the past two years, ever since his pediatrician recommended we see a specialist about his loud breathing and snoring. After observing him having somewhat restless sleep with periods of night wakings, we decided to take the next steps. His doctor diagnosed him with sleep apnea and suggested we have this tonsils and adenoids taken out. We were still hesitant (it's scary knowing your child will have surgery) but once his teacher mentioned his loud snoring at naptime, we decided it was time to fix the problem. Knowing his sleep apnea would lead to much bigger problems later on, and with much prayer, we've decided to have the surgery done over his spring break. So please pray with us that the surgery will go well and that he will have a quick recovery. I've heard it's really painful for the little ones but I hope all the Popsicle and jello will make up for it!
