Today we took Andrew to the doctor to get tubes for the second time. He has been nearly deaf for the past couple months. We've had to nearly yell for him to hear us. We learned last week, after going to the doctor, that he had tons of fluid in his ears again. The doctor decided it was best to get the tubes put back in his ears again. Today was supposed to be a 10 minute procedure, but it turned out that Andrew's adenoids and tonsils were very swollen as well. So, the doctor took out his adenoids, but decided to only cauterize his tonsils rather than taking them out.
Andrew did fine. He was, of course, feeling bad afterward. After about an hour of sipping ice water and apple juice, he started perking up as the anesthesia wore off. He did really well the rest of the day.
