While July was an adventurous month, we also had a long 2 non-adventurous weeks.... Over the past two years we have been struggling to get Jaydyns allergies and ear infections under control. After 12 months of having tubes in her ears, they have finally come out but the ENT believes that she is still having problems (due to constant diagnosis of croup!). After much consideration we decided to have her tonsils and adenoids removed. While it was a tough decision, I believe that it is for the best for her future and hope that it gets the cough and runny nose under control. So on June 28th, we went to Wolfson's Children's Hospital for the removal of both. We were discharged after a day of being there and the long recovery was underway. They said that the third day would be the worst and they were wrong. It was two weeks of long days and sleepless nights. I now know that the adenoids are close to the ears and there is pain when the nerves reconnect to the ear areas. She didn't complain about her throat at all she just cried constantly and pulled on her ears. By day 14, I was a confused/frustrated mommy bear and hoped that I had made the right decision, but it was like a light switch.... She was fine and was back to her normal self. Whew! I hope that it stays that way.
