Well, Camden had his appt. today with the ENT doctor. I think this guy is gonna like our family :)
He took a look in Camden's throat & said he has huge tonsils & adenoids. Now, when I had been to see him with Jenna, I had asked about having tonsils out, too, and he said Camden was too young to have them taken out. So, it was interesting when he looked at them today, he said he almost had second thoughts, but he feels like he really is too young. He said even if it was his own son, he'd do just the adenoids and keep an eye on the tonsils until he gets a little older. He also checked his ears, and said he has fluid in them as well, so he'll need tubes too.
We would have the surgery next Monday, but since we're flying out on that Thursday for Indiana, he said he'd rather wait until the next week. So, looks like he'll be going in on the 28th for surgery.
The discouraging thing about all this is that this doesn't leave much hope for the next Palmer kid! Seems like all our kids are destined to have adenoid/tonsil issues. I guess Jenna hasn't really yet, but she's still young!
