Pre-op. Over the past 2 years, my son has had 3 brain surgeries, a spinal closure, and a hernia repair. Today he went in for what should have been the easiest one yet... Adenoid removal and tubes in his ears.

Post op. Success! Did so well recovering, we get to go home! It's amazing! (keep reading, this is sarcasm)

5 hours later, we are back at the hospital in the ER after an ambulance ride and a 15 minute seizure.
Bright side: My son is still alive.
Down side: This is his 4th and most severe seizure and it terrified me. Not asking for anything and if it dies in user sub, I could care less. Just needed to vent a bit. Hope everyone else's day is going well!

He's soooo cute. Hang on buddy!

Clear his stopped ears by reaching into the back of his throat and manually pulling down on the inner ear muscle. Works!!!
