So Today Is ENT Day!

Yaaaaay?

What I am hoping to hear is ‘Grommets would help.’ and/or ‘Well, I agree it might be allergies, let’s get you referred over there and then we’ll take a look at the whole picture.’

Being an eternal pessimist I am expecting to hear ‘Nothing we can do. Sorry’. Because that’s what I’ve been hearing for 27 months now. He’s just ‘unlucky’ and ‘goes to day care, of course he picks up all the bugs’. Yeah. Not the answer I want.

I want a small boy who is well 99% of the time instead of the 50 – 75% we are getting right now. A small boy with whom going months without antibiotics is the rule, not the exception.

When he’s well he’s such a joy. Oh he tantrums, he’s hardly perfect and he is two. But when he’s ill? He’s very difficult. As you would be if you feel horrid all the time. And looking to Mummy and Daddy to fix it. Which we can’t. No matter how much we want to.

So it may be Adam’s 3rd GA in 27 months coming up. Or it might be a battery of allergy tests. Or it might be nothing.

Today begins The Saga Of the Infection Investigation.

Hopefully it won’t last as long as The Saga Of the Lump.
