My three year old son is due to have surgery to have his tonsils and adenoids on Tuesday. He has suddenly has a really snotty nose does this mean the surgery will be cancelled?

Not necessarily it will be up to the anaesthetist on the day. Just a snotty nose might not be a problem but if he becomes unwell or gets a temperature then you’ll have to cancel. You’ve got til Tuesday for things to change.
