Updates

We went to see our ENT doctor yesterday. Bug's ears are still having bloody drainage and look infected. Since we have tried topical and oral antibiotics and it hasn't seemed to fix these issues, we are going back to surgery...Monday...7:15am.

The doctor thinks that he is reacting to the material that the tubes are made of. So she plans on putting new ones made of different material in. Also, there is a high probability that he will have his adenoids taken out as well. If she decides during surgery that the adenoids need to come out, they will intubate him and put an IV in. He will then be under anesthesia for about 30 minutes.

We are doing okay. Of course, a little anxious because we're going back to surgery. We know that God is in control though and have comfort in that! We would love your prayers if you think of it. In addition to praying for Bug, please pray for his doctor, nurse, anesthesiologist, nurse anesthetist, and surgical tech who will be in the operating room. I know that this surgery is fairly common and routine, but as parents, we are still a tad nervous. I hope our little Bug gets things fixed this time around!
