Well, it's official, Alice is getting tubes in her ears.
Darn, I thought we were going to be able to avoid that, but after going to the ENT consult yesterday we learned she's had 7 ear infections this year.. that's 7 in less than 6 months. We had no idea! I think it's because she's so good and takes medicine so well that it's not a big deal when she's sick. Plus a lot of times we'll get the 3 day antibiotics so she's done with medicine super fast. Poor girl. She goes in on the 26th. It's probably a good thing - since it's so hard to tell when she has one it's more likely they'd get really bad and possibly cause permanent damage. Hopefully they'll work great for her like her sisters and ear infections will be a thing of the past.
Katherine had tubes for 2 years and has had them out for over a year. Only 2 infections since.
Jane still has hers in and if they haven't come out by December, 2 years, we'll need to have them taken out. At her last check up the doc said it looked like they were on their way out on their own.

Sorry to hear Alice has to get tubes, but you and I both know firsthand the benefits to having it done. :) Alice seems like such a happy little thing & I bet these will help her feel even happier!! Good luck!
