The Surgery

By Eileen, July 11, 2017 — When I was 9 years old I went to the hospital to have my tonsils out. It was the most horrible day that ever happened to me.  There was another little girl there and a wise old woman. When the other little girl went away the women said, “She went away laughing and she won’t come back like that.” When she came back she was unconscious.  I thought she was dead, and I wasn’t going where she went and started screaming for my mom. My dad was down stairs filling out paper work. But he didn’t stop the surgery.
