   well.
   i had my adnoids removed. and i dont know how common it is…
   but getting the adnoids/tonsils removed is very common with my friends.
   i think only two out of 20 have theirs still.
   it is just a normal procedure.
   and dont worry… afterwards the kid will be able to eat ice cream and popsicles all day… they will be happy…
