well.
i had my adnoids removed. and i dont know how common it is…
but getting the adnoids/tonsils removed is very common with my friends.
i think only two out of 20 have theirs still.
it is just a normal procedure.
and dont worry… afterwards the kid will be able to eat ice cream and popsicles all day… they will be happy…

now day’s it’s kids weight that causes sleep apnea. but tonsilectomy is very common surgery….MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE ICE CREAM ON HAND…
good luck
