HGTV star Jasmine Roth is known for transforming homes on her show Help! I Wrecked My House, but she recently opened up about a different transformation - her daughter's health.
In a heartfelt update shared through an interview with Future of Personal Health, Roth revealed that five-year-old Hazel underwent tonsil and adenoid reduction surgery in November 2023.
And now, Hazel is doing much better.
'Hazel is sleeping like a champ!' Roth shared. 'She has no issues, just goes to sleep, sleeps through the night, and wakes up in the morning, which anybody with a child knows is a big deal.'
Jasmine admitted she had no idea children could even experience sleep apnea.
Hazel showed signs as early as six months old, but the condition remained undiagnosed until she was three.
The diagnosis came years after going undetected, despite heavily affecting the entire family's sleep and wellbeing.
In an Instagram post from November 2023, Roth spoke about her daughter Hazel's journey after she was first diagnosed of pediatric sleep apnea.
It happened after a sleep study confirmed she had borderline severe sleep apnea, which caused her to wake up more than seven times per hour and experience drops in oxygen levels.
Before her diagnosis, Jasmine and her husband Brett noticed something was off.
'A few months ago, we noticed a weird breathing/snorting thing happening,' Roth shared on Instagram at the time.
Despite Hazel seeming to sleep fine at times, a visit to a pediatric ENT specialist and a follow-up sleep study revealed the severity of her condition.
Jasmine recalled, 'Her tonsils were touching… and the x-rays showed her adenoids were also enlarged.'
Choosing surgery wasn't a decision they made lightly.
'We opted to do a sleep study instead of jumping right into surgery,' she wrote.
But after the results came in, it became clear that surgical intervention was the best path forward.

She praised the care Hazel received at CHOC Children's Hospital and the compassion shown by the medical staff.
'If I ever need surgery, I want to go there,' she said, giving a special shoutout to Dr. Bhatt and the team.
The surgery was a success.
Just weeks later, Hazel began sleeping soundly through the night - for the first time in her life.
'Like most parents, we wish we'd caught it sooner,' Roth said. 'But once we understood what was going on, everything moved quickly.'
In the midst of this health scare, the Roth family also experienced a joyful - though intense - milestone.
In September 2024, Jasmine gave birth to their second daughter, Darla, one month early in what she described as a dramatic, near-roadside delivery.

Thankfully, the new addition arrived as Hazel's health was already improving drastically.
After spending 15 days in the NICU, Darla is now healthy and bonding with her big sister.
With so many personal developments, it's no surprise Jasmine took a step back from filming Help! I Wrecked My House over the past year.
But fans won't have to wait much longer as a new season, filmed in the Roths' new home state of Utah, is set to premiere sometime in Fall 2025.
