[quote=Anonymous]I spent a year passing strep throat back and forth with my sister for a year and a half before the drs told my parents "pick a kid to have their tonsils out; that's the only way to stop this." I hated the throat cultures and absolutely cried about it. I had to sit on my moms lap and she would hold my arms against my sides. She would always say "If you want me to not hold your head still you have to hold it still yourself." The nurses always went fast and I always coughed afterwards, and then got a toy or sticker from the basket. Tell your daughter she has to do this for her health. Throwing a fit is unacceptable. You want to cry? Sure. But you suck it up and do what you need to. [/quote]
