I just had my daughter's eardrums pierced.
It's not nearly as bad as it sounds. The doctors put in shunts so that the fluid that has been building up and making her deaf and dizzy can finally drain. My three year old daughter will be able to speak soon, by the grace of whomever, and jump, and run for more than a few feet without falling.
Not nearly as awesome, but certainly worth mentioning in the happy thread, were the hospital staff that performed the operation. The doctor was competent, the anesthesiologist was friendly and calming, the nursed were all helpful. I wanted to hug them all, especially after the past five years of incompetent quacks that my family and I have suffered through. It was wonderful having my faith in the medical profession restored. |
