Tubes Were A Success!!!

Avery is home and the tubes were successful.  She was such a little trooper.  We went to Children's West and it was amazing.  They had so many toys for her play with while we waited, and the nurses and doctors were the best.  It wasn't fun watching her get the gas to be put out, but she did great.  The surgery only lasted about 15 minutes and she came out of the anesthesia just fine.  We are back home, she played hard and was pretty much her normal self, besides the 3 1/2 hour nap she just got up from!  They said she definitely needed them as she had lots of fluid in there.  They said there are 2 different kinds of fluid, a clear/watery kind and a thick glue like.  She had the thick kind, which they said was definitely causing a little hearing loss, so she should be hearing much better now and might be sensitive to noises for awhile.  They did also say sometimes if it comes back it can clog the tubes, so we'll have to wait and see. Hopefully not, we're being optimistic.

I didn't bring my camera, but had my phone, so we took a picture of her in her little hospital jammies.  They were a little too small, but the toddler ones were too big.  She even got to keep her sweet yellow slipper socks!  I'm glad it's over!
