Jake was up at 6AM with a fever and
sore throat. I had heard of people getting strep throat after having tonsils
out, but was hoping that wasn’t the case. I looked at his throat and knew it was. Sure enough after a trip to the doctor it was confirmed.
So sad for Jake and discouraging. It is hard as a parent to tell your child you
have to have surgery, you are having surgery so that you will never have strep throat
again, you are never going to have to go through this again. Then wham, he has
to have a second surgery, and wham now he has strep throat again. So upsetting, Jake didn’t get as run down and
sick as he usually does. Part of it is fast response and getting him to the doctor
and on meds. right away.
