I was the last one left in recovery when my folks showed up....and I thought I'd been abandoned LOL. Ice cream is your friend. Gosh, I had mine out as a very small child.

I had my tonsils out at 19. It was quite a difficult recovery. Here's what helped my throat feel the best: Mashed potatoes (sweet or otherwise), fruit smoothies, pudding, and definitely sorbet. I'd stay away from anything that may cause you to produce more mucus (ice cream tends to)because it will make you want to cough and that will just hurt. You're going to feel YEARS better once this is all done. I've not had any throat problems since. *hugs* Good luck and best wishes for speedy recovery.
