Ear Update- Again

Today we were blessed to take Mercia to another ENT, Dr. Casler. He goes to our church and was recommended by some others who have gone to him. We went to get his thoughts and we are so grateful we did. He was excellent! He gave us so much time and he so thouroughly explained everything. Upon examining her today he saw that there is so much fluid & pressure in her ears that her ear drum is pulled back into her middle ear almost as far as it can go. So even though there is no infection present she is in a significant amount of pain. And he said an infection is just around the corner. All this being said plus lots more we have decided that the best thing to serve our girlie is give her tubes. This should be happening sometime the next week. So grateful for your continued prayers for her.
