Will's Ears

Can't say I have seen this smile in a while. Ever since Will's birthday, he has been sick off and on. The latest developments are that after being off of his antibiotics for 3 days, Will got sick again. I was hoping that it was maybe only his teeth, but after a very cranky Thursday, and sadder night, I knew it was time to get him looked at again. Sure enough, both ears are infected again. That sealed the deal for me, so I scheduled Will's surgery for tubes for April 1. To prevent any further infection until then, the poor little guy will be on a smaller dose of antibiotics. I really don't like the idea of him being on them for so long, but at this point I need to trust my doctors. Hopefully these will be the last meds for a while.
I am very thankful that I have the option to take Will to the doctor. It hurts my heart to see him as sick as he is. I can't even imagine what it would be like to have a sick child and not be able to find care for him/her.
