Ear Tubes and Adenoids


Caramel had ear tubes put in and her adenoids taken out. She could not hear for months and months. I could not wait for her to get this done and see improvement. So glad it was before school started. The day before, I told her she was going to the doctor to have her ears cleaned out so she could hear. She wasn't too happy about that. In the morning, she got to take the I-pod with her to Day Surgery- that made everything better. The cute little hospital outfit was fun seeing her in. The doctor said that there was a lot of fluid in there. Caramel got ear tubes when she was 18 months. She constantly had ear infections but they stop after 3 years old or she got use to the pain.
The recovery wasn't bad except that is was nice sunny weather and no swimming for Caramel. She will use ear plugs whenever swimming now. She did have a sore throat a couple days after and sneeze out blood.
 
Funny thing is now she will copy cat things you say to show you she can hear.
