Make it go away!

Poor little Brookie has double ear infections...no surprise. She's been sick with a cough and a runny nose, too. She feels absolutely terrible! The only thing I love about her being sick is she is super snugly! She could just cuddle with me all day!
We are going back into the ENT this afternoon because we think one of her tubes fell out. I really hope not, but yesterday her ears were draining worse than they ever have. Last night she was up almost every hour in severe pain. She kept pointing to her left ear and saying "ouwie" (I don't know how to spell that) and this morning her left ear completely stopped draining. Her right ear is still draining and never have any of her infections cleared up that fast. For those of you who don't know much about ear tubes, they allow the infection to drain and relieves the intense pressure of the infection. The fact that she's been in so much pain and it's not draining definitely indicates a problem and I guess we'll find that problem out today, hopefully!

Oh that is awful! I hope everything goes okay at the ENT today. That little girl has been through way too much with her ears! I agree though, sometimes it's nice when they are sick because they let you snuggle with them! Caleb has double ear infections right now too (nothing like Brookie's though), and he is so cuddly all of a sudden!
