Tubes again

Robbie had a ENT appointment today and I didn't want to cancel even though he has a cold and cough. The new ENT took a look at his ears, took all his history, and then Robbie had a few hearing test done. The result is that Robbie's ears are still filled with fluid and his hearing is a lot lower than what it should be. After discussing options which where: wait it out or get tubes, we voted for tubes. The doctor was very nice and honest and said it didn't look like this problem is taking care of it's self. So Robbie is schedule for tubes in April and hopefully he will be healthy. I feel so bad for this kid, not being able to hear well has got to be so frustrating. I am hoping these tubes will make his life easier.
