It’s a day of updates.<\/p>\n
We were at the hospital this morning to have Ava’s ear ventilation tubes checked.\u00c2\u00a0 They were inserted last October 28th in an effort to alleviate the months and months of ear infections our little bunny endured.\u00c2\u00a0 After the surgery?\u00c2\u00a0 Not one infection in 12 months.\u00c2\u00a0 In fact, we knew one of the tubes had come loose when Ava got an ear infection recently.<\/p>\n
We learned today that, in fact, both tubes have worked free and are sitting, harmlessly embedded in wax, in Ava’s ear canals.\u00c2\u00a0 But the doc says her ears look fine, so we’ll wait and see whether she starts getting a lot of infections again.\u00c2\u00a0 If she does, it’s another set of tubes for her.\u00c2\u00a0 We’re hoping she’s outgrown the need for the tubes (holding your child’s hand as she goes under anesthesia is not the most fun), but if she hasn’t, they’re an effective fix for a lot of pain suffering.<\/p>\n
Ava actually seemed to have a good time at the “hostipul” today.\u00c2\u00a0 She was a real sport as three different people came through and stuck instruments in her hears.\u00c2\u00a0 She even came out of the appointment with a new strawberry scratch-n-sniff sticker.\u00c2\u00a0 It also helps that there’s a huge saltwater fish tank in the waiting area, complete with little crabs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
