Tonsils and Trauma

Well, Jack's tonsils are gone and his tongue has been clipped. Many tears and a convincing belief that he was going to die is how we entered the hospital, but all went well, especially after the nurse gave Jack a dose of a calming medication which I now call THE WONDER DRUG. Talk about changing a mood/personality within about 30 minutes. Oh, did I mention that he threw a fit about the oral syringe they used to squirt THE WONDER DRUG into his mouth? Yes, this is where we started :)

Here are a collection of quotes from Jack while under the influence of the WONDER DRUG:

Nurse: Jack, are these two your parents?
Jack: They are my grandparents.
Then he snickered.

Jack: Are they going to have to shock my heart? Can I have that bubble gum gas?

Jack: (slurring begins) This surgery thing is really fine. In fact, I think it will be good.

A few minutes later...
Jack: (slurred) I'm so sorry I didn't trust you. I really feel good. This is going to be great.

A few minutes later...
Jack: (slurred) I need you to be quiet now so I can sleep. All I need is some peace and quiet.

I have got to get myself some of this drug....
