This week found Emma and me at Texas ENT taking a look at our littlest lady's ears.
Bad news first: we found out through the audio screening process that due to the lengthy exposure Emma has had to excess fluid in her ears that she's suffered some mild hearing loss.
Good news: our ENT is hopeful that with careful monitoring of fluid levels and staying on top of it she will not experience any further hearing loss, and it's possible - though we won't know until she's much older - that her hearing can resolve itself.
We will be putting tubes in Emma's ears and taking out her adenoids on March 4th.
To make myself feel better after some difficult news, we then treated ourselves to Freebirds with Daddy, Lulu, and Clara! yum :)
