这两天好惨,从昨天起咽喉巨疼,还开了一天会,今天继续疼,挣扎着去看了医生,医生表示strep阴性,应该不是细菌感染,但保险起见还是开了抗生素。而S已经没去上学三天了,从周末发烧,烧退了又开始咳嗽,昨天睡了一天。保险起见周日和今天都带她看了医生,也是没别的问题,应该就是流感,也只能吃个泰诺……看病看了一上午,下午好歹睡了一大觉,又得带她去早先约好的orthodontics,回来顺便去图书馆借了几本书,拿了一个museum month pass。啊,我本来还想好不容易休个病假,在院子里晒晒太阳…… to cheer up,发几张周末照的多肉,逛nursery买了几棵新的,加上旧的规模很壮观了
Tonsillectomy and Adenoidectomy
The tonsils are located in the back of the throat, and the adenoids in the back of the nose. They are made up of tissue similar to what makes up a lymph node. Their purpose is to help “trap” and fight infection. Because we have so many other lymph nodes in the head and neck, if this tissue is removed, we can still fight infection.
This surgery is generally performed in childhood to help reduce snoring and improve sleep or because of recurrent Streptococcus (“strep”) throat infections. When the tonsils and adenoids are enlarged in a child, the airway is narrowed, which makes it more difficult for air to pass into the lungs while the child is sleeping. When this happens, the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may be made. For some patients, an overnight sleep study is recommended to make the diagnosis of OSA. A sleep study consists of close monitoring of breathing, oxygen level, and heart, muscle, and brain activity while sleeping. For many children, OSA will improve after a tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy. If your child has recurrent strep throat infections (7 infections in 1 year, 5 per year for 2 years, or 3 per year for 3 years), they may also benefit from having this surgery.

果然第一个孩子照书养,第二个当那啥养,第三个孩子不怎么管就长大了 。
有点儿内疚。昨晚不算是个称职的妈妈。今早才发现我的小王子一脸略微消了些的的细小红疹,显然昨晚过敏了,但我居然刚刚知道。
昨天下午一点接到学校电话,说老三因为咽喉痛光顾护士室三次了。护士每次都给他盐水,虽然他并未发烧,但学校问我要不要先接孩子回家。接回来以后他精神还不错,有些轻微咳嗽。喝了通常效果不错的念慈庵,晚餐时胃口还挺好,让我给做了一大碗味增汤的乌冬面。然后睡前开始吐。
他小时候得过数次strep throat, 哮吼,每回都是咳、吐,严重时呼吸困难。小时候发作,闹过几回吐得一床一地甚至一墙,也曾用过几次帮助呼吸的激素喷雾器。在他之前,女儿小时候得过肺炎,老二得过哮喘,等等。总之,各种不算太严重的疾病应对措施,我这个做妈妈的多年下来早已驾轻就熟,有套流程。[黑线][汗] 昨晚就照例让病中的老三睡我旁边,他身侧放好装呕吐物的垃圾桶、纸巾、水... 主卧边的浴室彻夜亮着暗灯。果然半夜里他吐了数回。有两次他闭着眼抱怨“太热”,我摸了摸他额头,没怎么发烧,就只是继续给他喝水。现在想来,发热应该是过敏反应。但昨晚一切都在微光里进行,他又没其他症状,我完全不知道他这回不仅仅是咽喉肿痛。
其实到现在我也不知道他对什么过敏。乌冬面和糖浆都是从前用过数次的。好在今早他精神见好,最严重的反应看来已经过去了。刚才他和我一起翻了一本coffee table book (这本很适合孩子们,一百万件东西的视觉“百科全书”)。他随口选221页,翻开,介绍的是各地的节日。然后又看他的go to book, 蔡志忠版的西游记。书都翻烂了,这是有多爱!
