Poor Jordan

So, for the last several months we have made numerous trips to the doctor for Jordan and her ears. She pulls and pulls and pulls on them. Some nights she hardly sleeps. She wakes up and gives this terrible cry and lets you know she'd rather be sleeping. Well, finally, at her 9 month appt her pediatrician agrees that we need to go and see an ENT. So, anticipating that, I had already called and gotten an appt with an ENT doctor the same week as her 9 month check-up. Well, her hearing is still within the normal range. Unfortunately, she has no movement in her eardrum. This is what we were suspecting. If we didn't do anything to fix this it would cause her to be delayed in many things. i think it already has in regards to standing. poor thing doesn't have a lot of stability! well, I guess that is understandable now. So, today after her hearing test and doctor's appt she is scheduled for surgery. She will be having tubes put in on January 29th.

Crossing our fingers for you sweetie!

Raul is getting his tonsils out on that same day. I will for sure keep her in our prayers!

When we were kids my sister (at age 6 - the problem was discovered late) had tubes put in her ears. They worked great. She grew up musically inclined and now is a composer and has been commissioned by various symphonies to write pieces. Best of luck to Jordan!
