A. Yes It is a decent age for you to go ahead because right now your child is not going to school and now you’re so your child will have a proper rest also after the surgery and I have a friend whose son got operated at the same age about four or five years and he’s perfectly fine now which is why I can advise you to go ahead with it now if your doctor is advising so
