much thanks to everyone :)
« on: November 28, 2007, 06:46:34 AM »
As some of you know I logged in last night on my laptop from the hospital where I was with my son for his sleep test. He's 7 years old and stops breathing in his sleep. We had to do this sleep test so that the doctor had documentation to be able to have a good reason to take his adnoides and tonsils out. So in the next couple weeks we will be going thru alot. He's my baby and it was really hard to see him hooked up to all them wires last night. We are now at home and very happy to be cuz hospitals stink..hehe

I just want to say that I am greatful to everyone in the community that was showing me support for myself and my son as we go thru this. This is what makes me play AH, its the loving thoughful community that come together and give thought to those who need it. My son will be fine but I just wanted to say to yall thank you very much. <3!

Hang in there Betty, there are better days to come!



If he was a good little man I hope you got him ice cream after.

Betty, I'm fairly new here (over a year or so), but have to agree, this is a great community.  My prayers go out to you and your family.  

Best of luck!

Sorry to hear Betty. It sounds like sleep apnea but I didn't realize that could affect someone that young. I've dealt with it for 10 years. Shoot me a PM if ya wanna chat.

Double dose of prayers comin yer way.

ahh...so that was the sleep talk!

I missed it in all the spam and fighting, and saw people saying G'luck, but didn't know why.

I'm sure he'll do fine, Betty.  I'm betting he's a tough little Dude!:aok   It's probably gonna be tougher on you, than it will be on him.

Give him a noogie from Ol' Keirg, and tell him to "rub some dirt on it";)

As far as you...keep a stiff upper lip.  I know how hard it is to see your kiddoes go through this kinda stuff.

I remember getting my adenoids taken out as a small child. I mainly remember the foot long needle they stuck in my thigh to put me to sleep. I screamed like a b*tch.

Getting your adnoides and tonsils taken out isn't the most horrible thing to go through. i had the same problem when i was younger. My throat hurt, but the doctor said i had to eat a lot of ice cream so that made up for it:D You and your family are in my prayers. good luck

My family will include you and your son in our prayers Betty.
Hope that all goes well. Having a sick child is always tough.

The best thing for him is to get those things out.  My son was the same way and could not sleep and would stop breathing for about 20 seconds.  Very scarey.  My son got them out last year and he is a new boy full of energy, piss and vinegar.  He is even beating me in the DA which is (as all you know) is not hard.  Hang in there Betty.  It is for the best.  I had a hard time with it to.  Your baby and all.  Hang tough the old JUGMAN and others have your emotional six.  Cowboy up babe he will do fine.

best of luck for your son, betty.  I had my adenoids out when i was a child, similar to ColSuave all i can remeber is eating lots of icecream.:D   My Grandma gave me so much Arctic Roll (a british icecream), i don't ever think i enjoyed visiting my grandparents as much as that week.
