What do I do? The doctors moved up my surgery!?

Question

I'm fourteen and I have to have my adenoids tonsils removed and tubes in my ears. I was originally scheduled to have the operation on September 22, 2008. But now my mom told me that my surgery is moved up, way up, to the 10th instead. I'm just starting high school and I will be in school for a week then I will be out for my surgery for a week. I'm worried that I won't be caught up and adjusted to high school. Some of you might remember me, lol, from when I asked what to pack for a surgery but now I know! Thanks for everyone's help that answered my question.

Answer 1

You just be thank ful that you are able to get help from a doctor.

The school understands your situation.

I had my adenoids out and tubes in my ears.

You'll heal fast and won't miss much school.

Worrying will keep you from healing quickly so just relax and accept it.

All the best. :)

Answer 2

You'll feel better once you've recovered from surgery (I had my tonsils and adenoids removed, too).  It's worth it.

Good to hear you're one of the students who does take school seriously (a good example for others who would welcome the opportunity to escape) but, as the others have said, you will find it easier to catch up then you're expecting.

All the best and a full recovery. :-)

Answer 3

The 10th is on a Wednesday.  See if they can do it on Thursday or Friday instead.  Regardless, I doubt you are out for the full length of time.  You will probably be back in school on Monday morning no matter when you get it done.  If it is Wednesday you will probably be able to get to work on homework by Friday and throughout the weekend.  You will be laying around in bed eating ice cream with not much else to do besides homework, reading, watching tv and playing games.  You'll be fine.

Answer 4

HIgh school is not that hard- you can catch up, and you will do better if you can hear.
