Ear Tubes


It took two attempts, but Schuyler finally got her ear tubes! She was scheduled for the first Tuesday in November and my Mom flew in to help take care of her. But the morning of her surgery, she was running a low fever and the doctor's did not want to take a chance. We certainly agreed with that approach, but were disappointed since the poor girl had to get three more antibiotic shots to take care of the existing ear infection. Two weeks later, she was fever free and ready to rock! Of course, Todd and I were both with her throughout the entire pre-op process. And I was able to walk her into the operating room and be with her while they gave her the general anethesia. She did great, but my stomach was doing flips! I barely made it back to the waiting room when the doctor finished the procedure. She was a little fussy when she woke up, but recovered quickly. Todd's mom sent her a card and told her that she was "one tough little Anthony." I couldn't agree more. We are so proud of our brave baby girl!
