Ear tube surgery

At the end of the year, we finally got a good hearing test that revealed there was mild loss in your right ear, most likely due consistent fluid (since January) around your ear drum. Dr. Wooten - your ENT, recommended bilateral ear tubes, and we got them done quickly on the last day of the year. You and Mommy had to be at Vandy by 6am!

Here you are- all dressed up and ready to go. You loved playing with all the cars and even drove one to the OR. There were no tears that I saw, and surgery took all of 10 minutes.

I went back to see you when it was over and you were awake. You were groggy and unhappy that your car was gone! You said you didn't want to leave and wanted to keep playing with the car. I distracted you with apple juice and we were home by 8a.

Later that day - you seemed fine and even stayed up late for our Kids Minute to Win It party. 

Then just this morning - we went back our follow-up and you did wonderful on the hearing test and it revealed normal hearing. Yay! We go 1 more time in July, then hopefully we are done.

Here you are - as T4's super friend. You finally became "super-friend" last week. I hope it was well deserved!
