My poor babe

Today we met with the ENT to discuss ear tubes and came to the decision it is now time. I was hoping she would say his ears are all clear and things are looking up. But nope, he still has constant fluid in his ear. They did some more hearing tests on him and he has some hearing loss due to the fluid. We assume this has been impacting his speech. My sweet boy was so brave as they were poking and prodding his head. Our doctor was truly amazing and kept him smiling and laughing. He left with a handful of stickers and some prizes from the prize box. He left smiling. And that is a big deal seeing how he's been to the doctor every week this past month.

So please say a prayer for him. We are trying to schedule the surgery very soon.

  1. I know it may be too late, but has the doc recommended taking Jayden off dairy (if he is on it)? That made a WORLD of difference to John. He's had a bunch of infections, so I was researching dairy's impact and it looks like there is some convincing information linking the two. Anyway, maybe that could even bring some relief.
