    Tonsillectomy, age 7
    Wisdom teeth extraction, age 12 (boy was that fun!)
    C-section, age 21
    C-section, age 25
    Appendectomy, age 29...this is my favorite! It was New Years Eve and they had to call the surgeon in, my husband was deployed, my sister barely made it to the hospital before they took me into surgery, and I missed work on the last day of the fisal year (I'm an accountant - it was a BIG deal to me at the time, lol, ahhh perspective!)

    Tonsils at age ten or so.

    I thought being in the hospital was so exciting and cool! They told me I would get to have my tonsils in a jar. They lied. :angry:
