Hi Diana! I just saw your post about Jaci. I just want to say that my son always had strep throat as a child in elementary school. He is now 22 yrs.old. Back then he was constanly on antibodics and home from school. The dr. suggested that he has his tonsils removed and that summer before school started we did.

Let me tell you , when you hear about eating all the ice cream and cold stuff you think wow thats great. I still to this day remember him throwing up after surguery until we got home he was doing it. It was awful, then he couldnt eat at all for a few days, to painful. So the ice cream and cold stuff come a little later on. Don't be surprised if she doesn't want any. All I did was cry, for he was so pitful.

But that was the best thing to have his tonsils removed he never had strep again or suffered many sore throats. Tell Jaci it will get better, I hope she has a speedy recovery.
