Yesterday, Tim took Kate to the ENT. I fully expected it to be a "Yes, there is still improvement. See you in four months," kind of appointment. But that was not the case.
Only two months after her last surgery, she has to have another set of tubes put it. Ironically, it wasn't even that right tube that has been clogged that finally convinced the doctor. Nope. The left tube? The one that has been fine all along? It fell out. Yipee.
At first I was really frustrated. Well, actually if I am being honest, I am still frustrated. But if you remember, I was praying for a clear direction from God on what we should do about that silly right tube. Well, the left one falling out is pretty clear. It wasn't my first choice, of course, but we don't have promises of "easy" now do we? We have promises that He will never leave us, and that if we ask him He will give us wisdom. And a whole bunch of other promises too, but those are the ones I am leaning on today:)
The surgery is scheduled for August 6th. On the bright side, at least we don't have to do ear drops for a couple weeks.

Saw this from NHBO. I am SO THERE with you. We have surgeries scheduled for the two littles on Sept. 23 (yes both on the same day with cranio-facial surgeon).
Yippee. (with a period)
But as you say we're not promised easy just His grace and mercy. Thanks for keeping it real! And here's hoping these tubes are successful.
