I have such mixed feeling about this. Tubes were a dark evil cloud over so much of my childhood. I hate for Alex to go through the same thing. And I will be a crying basket case the day of....probably even before.
But although he does not have an infection at the moment he does still have fluid in his ears. Fluid that is ripe for infection. Fluid that is throwing his balance off. And fluid that is hampering his hearing.
Surgery is Tuesday July 13th.
In other news we have (hopefully) made our last bottle. Alex was down to 1 bottle at night. He did not need it since he eats well during the day, but it had become his comfort item. He has not latched onto a stuffed animal or blanket. But for the last 3 nights he has gone to bed without a bottle. Although the first 2 nights it was hours past his normal bedtime. But last night he was asleep before 8pm.
