I remember all the promises of ice cream and jello. Well, just try and swallow that stuff when ya get yer tonsils yanked out. I've held that against my parents since I was a little kid!!!

I don't blame anyone in here about that. My brother broke his right kneecap Saturday last week. Went in for surgery yesterday because of postponements, was just discharged today.

Good Luck dude. I agree, It isn't true about the ice cream. But the plus side is people will be really nice to you for a few days.

I had my tonsils removed at age 6. It was no sweat, you'll do fine.

At least no one will force you to eat "Cream of Wheat" unlike my situation.

All I can think of when the word tonsils comes up is the Bill Cosby routine...... Gotta Have Ice Cream.... Lots of Ice Cream!
I still have mine, perhaps thats why I can't swallow any more. Good luck with yours!!

The law says that they have to give you any parts that they remove. It's a good idea to keep them, because as your model gets older & spares are harder to come by, you may be able to find someone & have the old ones rebuilt.

You could in the meantime just put them on a shelf in the curio cabinet along with dousers with holes burned in them.

Glad "everything" came out OK, Danny!

Forget the ice cream...go suck on a Popsicle!
