As I have mentioned recently, I feel as if my recent posts have lacked direction, so I'm taking a page out of a fellow bloggers book and am going to do an A-Z challenge. Meaning.....the post I write will be focused around a topic of the letter of the day. So for instance, today being the first day, is the letter A.
Adenoidectomy:
A week from today my sweet baby girl is going to have her adenoids removed and tubes put in her ears. Ever since she was a little over a year old she's had almost constant trouble with ear infections every winter. Every time she gets sick and gets a fever, it inevitably ends up in an ear infection, and it's gotten to the point where most medicines aren't completely getting rid of it. She recently had an allergic reaction to augmentin with itching and hives and the whole nine yards, so that rules out a lot of medicines. It just makes sense to have this done, especially since I had tubes put in when I was little and evidently it did wonders for my ears, so I'm praying for the same outcome for Emma!
We won't know until the night before what time her surgery will be, but we do know that it will be a 15 minute procedure, and we will be reunited with her an hour afterwards when the anesthetic begins to wear off. I'm just glad that it's a pretty low-risk procedure and am hoping her recovery goes smoothly. We did get a piece of good news last night, which came in the form of Mom asking if we would mind having her for company next week! It will be great getting to spend some extra time with her, and I'm sure Emma will love having her around to cuddle with :)
