ENT appointment

We went to the ENT today. The Dr. looked in Emma's ears and said that she had mucus/liquid stuck behind her ear drums. Since she has been on several rounds of antibiotics and it hasn't helped then they won't. We also believe that the ear infections and fluid is due to allergies. Emma has been on allergy medicine for about 2 months which has helped her nose and cough tremendously but hasn't stopped the ear infections so he said that's out. Normally they first try antibiotics and then allergy medicine and we've done both without a good outcome. So, the only thing that is going to help is tubes. Emma will have the tubes put in on June 24th I think. It takes about 5 minutes and she will be completely normal later that day.

Hello sweet princess,

I have heard that you have some trouble with your ears. I am glad that the doctor could analyze the issue. So he will help you to get things sorted on the 24th. I will cross fingers for you and will think about you as always.
Love,
Daddy
