Why do they make you not feed your child before surgery?

Preparing your child for Surgery

If your child "accidentally" drinks or eats something after being instructed not to, try to estimate how much. e.g. 1 freezie, a "sip"( less than a tablespoon). Notify the hospital immediately as your surgery may be canceled or delayed.
