Surgery

This morning Blake had his second surgery in his life! Blake has had sooooo many ear infections (i think 8), that the doctors gave me the option of having them place tubes in his ears to prevent future ear infections. Last week he finished his antibiotic for his double ear infections and when they placed the tubes in his ears this morning he already had another set of ear infections!! My poor little boy.

So what happened was, they had to put him out(so horrible) and then they made a little slit in each ear drum, suctions all the fluid(which was really infected) and then stuck tiny tubes in his ears. The doctor told me that for a child as young as Blake, since he has had so many ear infections, he probably has never really gotten rid of the ear infections. He said the antibiotics would clear up most of it but then leave some behind and sooner or later it progresses to another ear infection. So my poor little boy, more than likely, has been having pretty much a constant ear infection in both ears. That would definitely explain why he goes on spurts of waking up in the middle of the night.

We are so relieved the tubes are now in and my poor little boy can relax! When Blake woke up from the anesthesia he was not a happy boy but by the time we got home and he was super happy and back to normal! Thank goodness!


We had to wake him up at 6am this morning! But look how happy he was! He was giggling in the car and was just all smiles!
Waiting for them to take him from me. By the way that is the worst thing ever! I do not like them taking him from me. Of course i teared up and was a baby but they took him from me and he was crying! Look how tired he was!After about 40 minutes we got him back! He was not a happy baby. He did not like the feeling of the anesthesia waring off. But look how cute they are!
Haha our wrist bands!
