No Pain, No Gain

Shana told me last night that she was afraid to go to sleep since her throat always hurts so much when she wakes up. Talk about heartbreaking.They said it would take ten days to recover from a tonsilectomy, but I was worried it might go longer. I fluffed her bed, doped her up, wrapped up the next dose and put it right next to her pillow for a middle of the night round if she needed it and kissed her good night.

This morning she woke up smiling. No Pain. It's officially Day Ten. Middle of the night med still wrapped up by the pillow. Made me smile, too.
