I felt like we were pushed into a tonsillectomy before having enough information about my daughters snoring. It was recommended and scheduled so quickly that I felt like I had so many questions after the appointment. We will be canceling the surgery and waiting for more answers.

Look, EVERYone we came in contact with was amazing. Even the lady telling us where to go at the desk; she told me I could use a wagon if I would like- I always thought those were for kids who couldnt walk.
