EARSKit's hearing test went well although his ear drum wasn't as good as it should be but then he does have a cold. He has to have another one in a year's time. Hannah did pretty well but she wasn't hearing the softer noises and when they hooked her up to the machine they siad that she had fluid in her ear. I have to take her back in a few months for a retest. They did say that she had done well to go without gromits for this long so I guess if they find the fluid is still there then that is what we are in for. I know they are routine but even today's visit back to the Children's hospital gives me the heebee geebees. It brings back such a stressful time in my life when both my babies were so sick they could have died. I know gromits is nothing like as bad but still I don't want her to have to go through more surgery - I don't want to have to see her under anasthetic ever again.

Ugh, the ear thing. We're in the same boat with Evan...went for the test, too much fluid, re-test later. I'm hoping he doesn't need tubes; no big deal, really, but he's already been through so much you know? Same with your Hannah. I'm crossing my fingers for you guys!

Grommits are the ear tubes right? I know what you mean about not wanting her to go through that even though it's so routine and minor - I feel the same way and Kayla has had this done 3 times now!
