Saturday i got my tonsils out. It was a surgery that i needed to get done. If i did so i wouldn't have any problem with my tonsils during the season. I usually have like 4 or 5 sore throats a year. At the end of last season i had the worst one yet. i couldn't even swallow water, it hurt to breathe out of my mouth and i lost like 15 pounds. Most of my sore throats got to the point where i couldn't swallow water without having pain. I look crazy when i go out to a restaurant and drink water and tense up every time i take a drink or eat something. The surgery went fine. it was early saturday morning. It was like a 45 minute surgery. They put the stuff in my IV to make me go to sleep and i was just laying there on the table. The next thing i remember was in one of the hospital beds saying when we gonna get started, but it was already over. It was very painless. I was rushing to get out of the hospital and get back to the hotel. When i got there, the first thing i did was turn the air to cold and then get in bed. I passed out sitting up, i was in that position for like 5 hours until i woke up. The first night wasn't even that bad. If i felt any pain, then i'd take some medicine which was in liquid form. The little pain that i did have would go away just like that. I actually ate kraft mac and cheese that night. The next night when i woke up i had a puddle of blood where i was sleeping. It was in the spot where my puddle of slobber is usually at. I had to gargle with cold water which would stop the bleeding. To keep my weight up I'm actually drinking protein shakes with my meals. On the second day i shouldn't of because my stomach was feeling weak just from the little bit of food i had but i forced down the protein shake which sent me over. I got sick. I didn't even make it to the toilet -- just to the sink. It was mac and cheese, ugh it was nasty but i felt better. Other than those incidents i've been doing pretty well. My throat gets sore and dry and i can feel the scab now but when i take my medicine I'm usually fine. Hopefully they let me go home with my mom because they usually want you to stay for 2 weeks, but im doing good and its gonna suck being out here by myself in a hotel room all day.
