Today is Halloween, and what are we doing? Well, not the usual activities that most people would be. No, we are at the ENT!! AGAIN!! But we chose to use a different doctor from the one who put their tubes in. If you have read my previous post then you know we had tubes placed in both boys ears in April and have been having trouble. Well Bryce woke up from his nap at MiMi's house yesterday late SCREAMING!! This is not his usual behavior so I was a little concerned when I couldn't get him to stop crying. He kept telling us his ear hurt and pointing to his left ear. Well that's the ear that the tube has been stopped up in and he has had an infection in it so I thought it was just regular pain. Apparently not. I ended up taking him in to the ENT today where I was informed that my sweet boy has MOLD yes MOLD growing in his ear. WHAT?! I know, gross isn't it? The tube is still stopped up and there is still fluid behind it, oh and his other tube in his right ear, well it's come out completely. Sitting in his ear canal. So we start a different antibiotic and different ear drops today. Jace will be coming to the ENT on Thursday for his check up and to get the results of hid hearing test we had done about a week ago, both boys did. Bryce's hearing seems to be fine but he has so much fluid on his left ear his hearing is diminished by 20-35% says the doc. I'm so frustrated with the tubes I could just SCREAM!! Anyway, we also ended up doing xrays of his sinuses and we will see where we go from there. Please keep my lil men in your prayers!!
