Doctooor Max

Max had a few months of ear infections this spring. After too long with fevers, and a several trips to the doctor we ended up seeing an ENT in Reading who recommended Max have his adnoids removed and tubes put in his ears. I have tried not to think too much about the surgery, in case I might over think it, and worry too much. I decided to look forward to it being over and Max having a much less chance of having lingering ear infections in kindergarten and the early grades. So today was the day and we all got through it. Even leaving the house at 5:45am! Look at my champ! Pre-surgery!

sporting his free anti-slip, grip slippers! "you can KEEP these!"
He kept spinning in the nurses chair saying, "I'm Doctor Max! Doctoooor Max!"

but can you see the anxiousness on the other side of the room?

He did very well, but managed to get sick a few times after wards and extend his stay a couple hours. (he required a few more beverages than average. Ginger ale. Apple. Sprite. and some observation)
Max talking to Daddy about his new Star Wars Lego figures.

All done!
