The month started off with yet another ear infection after a fun weekend at the lake. This time I was ready to push for tubes, luckily I didn’t have to. Dr. Purnell pushed for it before I could get the words out of my mouth. September 10th was the day of surgery and he was a champ. He screamed for about an hour while coming out of the anesthesia, but other than that he was fine. Before the day was over I could literally tell an improvement in his hearing and in his speech. I don’t know why it never dawned on me that his hearing was impaired because of all the fluid stuck in his ears.
