Surgery for Sara...

Due to the back to back ear infections, Jared and I decided to have tubes put in Sara's ears.  We had heard the surgery is not that complicated and has great benefits, including improved hearing, less discomfort, and less antibiotics (all making the procedure worth it).  So far, everything said has proven to be true.  The procedure was done in one morning.  We checked in at 645 am (so early!) and were home by 10 am.  The hardest part was being in the operating room with her when they administered the anesthesia.  I am not sure I'll do that ever again... Sara was such a trooper though.  She was cooperative the entire time, and by the time we left, was smiling at the doctor.  She has been sleeping much better at night, and so far hasn't been sick (although it has only been 3 days!).  Lets hope for the best!!

  1. Oh, Erin, there is nothing scarier than being with your child while she is put under. There is nowhere you would rather be, but you would rather be anywhere else. Glad you all came out of it unscathed! Good luck to Sweet Sara!
