Jack had surgery to put tubes in his ears this morning. He was *such* a trooper and was happy, chirpy and flirty until he woke up from anesthesia, when he was finally freaked out, but according to our nurse he was quick to settle down.
On Tuesday when I took him for his pre-op his ears were extremely swollen, red and full of puss so our pediatrician put him on two days of intensive antibiotics to get the swelling down enough for the ENT doc to put the tubes in. It worked !! and the ENT doc said he sucked out a bunch of thick mucus while he was in there.
His ears have been draining bloody mucus all day but he seems to be recovering a-okay.
Sorry to those who are grossed out because I wrote about mucus and bloody mucus (like Jack's dad). :p

I'm so glad the procedure went well and that he seems to be surviving the bloody mucus alright! :) He looks so little in that hospital bed - I'm sure you are glad to have it finished!
