specialist

Today we went to the specialist to see about having Cravens tonsils out. We where hoping to do it when he is a little older and next year would be much better for us where the insurance is concerned. Of course what ever the doctor tells us is what we will do.
The doctor asked what was going on and I said that Craven has had strep throat 4 times already. He asked when the last one was and I forgot it was last month and I said Jan or Feb. He immediately said he does not like do a tonsillectomy on a kid this young. He said we can do different things like a antibiotic program that can help ward off infection until he is older. Sounds good. Well, then the Doctor had me hold Craven in the chair while he looked in his throat and ears. Once he finally pried Cravens mouth open he immediately said we need to do surgery. His tonsil and nads are abnormally large. He could not believe how big they were. The doctor new that we wanted to try for January, but he said his recommendation is surgery now. I do feel that if he thought we could wait he would. So, not even 2 and to surgery we go. My poor little man:(
