New Ear Tubes

Carter got his third set of ear tubes put in because he had a lot of fluid in his ears.  It was affecting his hearing so the doctor wanted to put in new tubes.  Tubes only last about a year before they grow out.  He threw a fit about wearing a hospital gown and didn’t want to be taken back to surgery.  Carter also wakes up really mean after anesthesia.  He stays unhappy until he gets a nap.  He wouldn’t take a nap so he ended up sleeping for several hours on the couch.  The difference is immediate in Carter's speech and responses to us.  Now we just have to make it until August 2 without swimming.
