Yet another one...

KP and I went to see his ear ENT this morning (because he has an ear ENT and a nose/throat ENT...I know, it doesn't make sense to me either) because he had an abnormal ABR on Monday.

It appears that he does have fluid behind his right eardrum. So, our ear ENT is contacting our nose/throat ENT to have him put a tube in KPs right ear. KP has never had an ear infection, but when we talk about his hearing, we are only talking about his right ear, because his left ear is a non-entity. So, they want to be proactive about this, because with the fluid back there it is causing a 30db loss, and we just can't afford that.

So, on Monday, KP will be having: adenoidectomy, esophogeal dilation, and a tube put in his right ear. Anyone else want to get on board?

Poor KP. I think we will be spending the night in the PICU again, because that is how his doctor likes to do it, but it's always possible that he will change his mind and we'll get to go home. The more procedures they add on, the less likely that seems, though.

I'm trying to update more often now, so keep your eye out for more small updates like this one.
