Fast Extruder

This apparently is the term for the child who has eardrums that refuse to allow tubes to stay in.

December 27: 2nd round of tubes put in because they came out too early
January 27: ENT tells me the right tube is no longer in the hole. What?!? They are supposed to stay in a year....not a month!

The hole is there so there is some ventilation, but the tube is just kind of hanging on. He tried to put it back in while we were in the office, but after Thomas shrieked and cried we gave up that idea.

Now we wait and see if we have to do round 3 - we look for ear infections and hold our breath.

Come on spring - get here soon with no ear infections along the way.

Maybe the 'hands over the ears' when he sneezed was he feeling something happening in his ear with tube.
Sneezes do sometimes make my ears feel funny.

I'm so sorry that the tubes don't stay in.

Fever's that I don't know.
