Who's recovering here?

My little bear had a successful adenoidectomy and myringotomy with insertion of ventilation tubes in the ears yesterday - I just love all those medical terms!  Anyway, after a very sore throat from the intubation tube yesterday/last night, the bear is recovering quite nicely.  He already can smell and hear better than he has in a long time - the adenoids were enlarged and blocking about 80% of his nasal passageways, and he had thick fluid in both ears which could not drain because of the blockage.  It seems to me like he is practically recovered today...but wait!  I planned for these two quiet and cozy days and I'm not ready for them to be done yet!
