Not Again...

Well, MM failed her hearing test at school today. They check it regularly & have her history of tubes. They did a very thorough screening. There is something going on in the middle ear of both ears. Guess that means that bad mommy, who crossed off the ENT on our lists of specialists, was wrong. We DO need to keep up with them. UGH. Have to call tomorrow to make an appointment for her.

And speaking of docs, tomorrow is MY appointment with the vascular surgeon. I am really scared, but hoping it will be something "easy" to fix- if a huge stenosis (narrowing) in your aorta can be "easy". I am choosing to live in denial of all of this at the moment. Afterall, healthcare workers make the worst patients!

Poor MM :( And poor mom too. Maybe she was just having an "off" day? I didn't think the screenings at school were all that thorough? Will be saying a prayer for you tomorrow that your appointment goes well.

Most of the screenings are basic here unless a child fails, then they do a pretty thorough one. I just feel crappy for missing this AGAIN! She has had an ear drum rupture & never said a thing cause of her pain tolerance.

Thanks for the prayers! I need them!
