After having a continuous ear infection for all of November and December we finally decided to take Cade to see an ENT. We were able to get an appointment for the afternoon of January 4 and the doctor suggested that we stop messing around with antibiotics and get tubes for Cade's ears. So, we called the day surgery center and they happened to have an appointment the next morning that they could work us into!
We got up extra early and had Cade at the surgery center at 6am and they took him back right around 7am.

About 15 minutes after they took Cade back for the procedure they came to get us to go back to the recovery room. The ENT told us that both of Cade's ears were extremely infected but that he was able to clean them out good when placing the tubes. We spent another 30 minutes in the recovery room and were headed home. It was such a quick procedure!
Cade recovered great and immediately started to feel better. He started talking more and even walking better once his ears were healed and he had better balance. We are so excited that we got this done when we did and hope that our flight to Colorado in a couple of weeks will be easy for Cade (and us too)!
