Last week we had a check up on Hailey's ears. Since the last post about her ears she got an ear infection in the ear that had healed. When we went to this check up there was no infection, but she still had fluid in that ear and the hole is still in the other ear. The doctor seemed to be puzzled as what to do. She then checked Hailey's adenoids, which are enlarged. They could be causing all of her ear problems so she will have surgery on Dec. 30 to remove them and also fix one of her ears. If there is still fluid in her ear on the day of surgery she will have her 4th set of tubes put in and if there is no fluid then she will patch the hole in the other ear.
Last night Nate was talking to his mom about Hailey's surgery and she broke down in tears telling me that she did not want to have surgery. I feel so bad for her. This will be her fifth surgery. Hopefully this one will fix all the problems and will be the last one.

Hey, Penny! Ear probs are the worst. I hope getting her adenoids out helps.
I think it is time we got together. I need some ventilation (remember that one?) How about after the New Year?
