FINALLY...no ear infection! Praise the Lord! After 3 months of going to the doctor every two weeks and trying every form of antibiotic, ear drops, and getting tubes....we are healthy!! Zach passed his right hearing test but the left one was inconclusive. Since he obviously isn't old enough to wear the headphones and raise his right or left hand when you hear the noise, they do this other test where they plug this thing in his ear and we have to be very quiet and still. The boy didn't do too good with the two aforementioned things. SO, he didn't pass that part and we will be back in a month and a half to be re-tested. But I'll take a month and a half over 2 weeks any day. The doc said there was no scar tissue or any reason why the left hearing wouldn't be okay so he didn't seem too concerned but we will re-test just in case. I cannot tell you how happy I am to have a healthy boy! And if we have any signs of drainage of nose or ears, we just start the drops and should clear up! Yippee!

Hooray for good ears!!! What a relief, you've been through enough. I hope the re-test goes well.
ReplyDeleteWe were just discussing babysitting rates in preschool the other day. The general feeling was minimum wage, or just above. Here in Washington, that would be about $8.50/hr. That being said, I made $10/hr in high school in the 1990s and $12/hr in college.
Happy Valentine's Day!
That is really great news!!
ReplyDeleteI pay $10 for 1 kid and 12-15 when she has both of my kids. If Zach will be asleep most of the time, $10 is good.
It will be so nice that you don't have to worry about the ears anymore.
