Anthony is Doing Well
We had to be at the hospital at 6:30am this morning. I woke Tony up at 11:30pm so he could have a bottle, since he could not eat or drink after midnight. We woke him up at 6am and headed over. Tony was in good spirits and we played while we waited for him to be taken in at 7:30. He was put under with just a mask, so he didn't have to have an I.V.
The doctor came out 10 minutes later and said all went well. He did find a pus and blood pocket in his right ear, which he was unaware of. So Tony's ear was really draining a lot of fluid and blood. He said it should stop in the next 48 hours. We got to go and see him at 7:45am and he was pretty upset. We could tell he had some discomfort by the tone of his crying. We are using Tylenol to help with the pain. We also have to put drops in his ears two times a day for the next three days. The doctor thought we should see a major difference in his demeanor in the next few days, since there was so much pressure in his ears. He has had several bottles and some food for lunch, and now he is finally sleeping.

We are glad he is doing well.
I am glad that all three of you came through the procedure with flying colors. You did the right thing for Anthony. I bet he feels a lot better.
