Virginia Fonseca Says Daughters Expected to Have Adenoid-Tonsil Surgery This Year

Doctors recommended surgery after enlarged tissues caused heavy snoring with disrupted sleep.

Overview

  • Fonseca said Maria Alice, 4, and Maria Flor, 3, have very large adenoids and tonsils that are affecting nights at home.
  • She shared that the younger child wakes repeatedly during the night, returning to sleep only to resume loud snoring.
  • Her post indicated the procedures are anticipated for 2026 on medical advice, with no surgery dates announced.
  • Clinicians explain that hypertrophied adenoids can block nasal airflow, contributing to mouth breathing, snoring, and sleep fragmentation.
  • Adenoidectomy or adeno‑tonsillectomy is a common pediatric operation with generally quick recovery when specialists deem it necessary.
