Tubes Again??

Today was Shay's appointment to get tubes. They called on Friday and reminded me that I have to be there at 6:45 am. So being the wonderful mother that I am and having to babysit the night before and had guests all weekend, I forgot!! I think I deserve the worst mother of the day award today! I felt like an idiot when the surgical center calls at 7:15 and woke me up and reminded me. So I asked if we could rush over, if they would still do it. They said yes, and we rushed very quickly over to Layton.

I have been trying to get these ENT doctors to give Shay tubes for almost a year now. She always has negative pressure when I take her in to get her hearing tested. I have noticed some regression in her speech sounds and I knew she needed these tubes. So 3 ENT appointments, 3 hearing tests, and 9 months later finally they said there was enough evidence for Shay to get her tubes.

This is her second pair, so I knew what to expect. Shay was a bit shocked because I forgot to talk to her about it before. (I am terrible, I know) So she was a bit anxious and upset. The only thing that helped her from not kicking and screaming on her way in the surgery was this cute little wagon. So thankful for that thing. Her surgery went well, and the Doctor said she had lots of fluid in both ears and the left was worse than the right.

Now on to more hearing tests to see if this was the issue with her hearing problems lately! She is my brave little girl and I love her sooooo much!
