This sweet boy is a mystery. If anything is rare or unheard of you can bet it will happen to him. He has had so many struggles already and he is only 10 months old (on Sept 3). I took him in to visit our ENT for a second post op check up for the tubes he had in June. One tube has come out completely and the other one is not doing its job. Next week we will be going in for a new set of tubes, which in a normal child's life would not be a big deal but in the life of our little Spuds it has great potential of becoming a big deal quickly. He has asthma, floppy airway disease, and has a low tolerance to anesthesia. again in an average child with these issues they might have ONE but our little guy has so many things going on in his little body that we don't even understand yet. I am scared to have him sedated again. Last time was a very scary and difficult time. I understand we need to do this in order to discover if he has a hearing impairment that will require hearing aids or if he just struggles with fluid and infection. This is a very important thing to learn and I will go through with it. I am just so afraid of him being put to sleep again. So if you would, please take a few minutes each day to say a little prayer for my Spuds.
