tube date is set!

We could not be more ready for our little lady to get her tubes!  I know she will feel MUCH better afterwards!

Last week, her doctor told me that her poor ears were no longer responding to the antibiotics.  She had been on 3 different ones in 5 or 6 weeks.  So... they had to give her this big ole shot three days in a row!  This was tough.  Especially, getting her in the doctor's the second and third day.  Can't trick our gal, she knew what was coming!  It was especially hard because Nick was in Houston for a business trip for a few days.  I was playing nurse and single mama!  We couldn't be happier to have him back!

The good news is the shot worked and it did clear up those ears.  Finally!

We went to the ENT Friday.  We have a tube date set for a week from today.  There was no question that she was a candidate with all of the trouble she's had with her ears lately.

One thing that I didn't like hearing was that her hearing test showed mild hearing loss (in one ear).  They told me that there's a couple of things that could have been a factor.  For one, she's a toddler, and they don't always do what you want them to do.  So... maybe it wasn't very accurate.  Also, the Dr. said it is more than likely the fluid.  This should be cleared up by the tubes. 

Hopefully her poor ears will stay clear until we get those tubes in.  Can't wait to get our girl back to her old self!
