Harper had 4 ear infections in the past month and a half. It seems she would get over one and another one would set in right away. It was so frustrating.
Our doctor decided that getting tubes was the best way to keep these infections from happening. They did a hearing test last Wednesday and found that both of her ear drums were not vibrating like they should, due to all the fluid. We took her the following Thursday morning at 6:30 to the Outpatient Surgery Center. We were on our way back home by 8:00, with tubes intact and a mad little girl! Apparently, kids do not like to be sedated.
After a good nap, Harper was back to her old self. She was so happy and we immediately saw a difference in her language. She was babbling and attempting words. The best part is that we have not had an ear infection since...knock on wood.
Not too bad for 6:30 in the morning:)
Ready for surgery (whether she likes it or not)
