I caught a bad cold in high school and my tonsils got infected. They were so swollen that they actually pushed up and you could see them in the back of my mouth. I ended up having them and my adenoids removed about two months later.
Recovery was so painful. I thought that I would just get to eat ice cream all day, but that didn't happen. I guess throat surgeons don't believe in that anymore because the people at the hospital gave me a cheeseburger to eat the morning after my surgery. I was in pain and could barely eat or swallow for two weeks. I ended up losing 8 pounds, which devastated me because I was already a string bean.
