Here's to the Ears

Jack had ear tubes put in a few weeks ago. He has had so many infections, some of them really bad and resistant to meds. The procedure was quick - he was in and out in about 30 minutes! The hospital was like a little factory - all of the rooms filled up with waiting kids & their parents. It was a little unnerving to see Jack on the drugs. In a way, it was funny, like a drunk little dude. In another way it was disturbing - seeing your kid....high. After the procedure he was really unhappy, crying and inconsolable. We pulled him around in a little wagon and that calmed him down. He was laying there in a trance as we pulled him - and then just whimpered a bit when we would stop! He really did look like he had a rough nite of partying and we were his buddies dragging him home!

Here he is with Dave after we arrived home. This only lasted a few hours and then Jack was up and about and running around. I can't say the same for Dave. As you can see, he was more konked out than Jack.
