Keagan has officially been home for 1 year and about a week. I that time he's suffered through 6 ear infections. We're currently fighting #6 right now. The first round of antibiotics didn't work - so we're trying a stronger one. The nurse practitioner worries that he may be building up an immunity to the one that worked the first 5 times. So now I make an appointment with a specialist to see if ear tubes are the next order of business. The average wait for an appointment is 2 months.... so it could be a while yet before we know for sure if/when he'll have surgery.
I do not relish the thought of sending my son off to surgery - but if it will stop this never-ending cycle of ear infections - let's get it done.
Other than that - Keagan is a typical 18 month old - rambunctious and full of bumps and bruises.
And - we're about 1 month away from a vacation back home... so other family members can try and keep up with him :)
We'll keep up with him as long as we can ... then hand him back to his Mother:)
