Ezra’s Got Tubes
They gave him some liquid Valium to make him silly. A few minutes after he was looking around and rocking on back. They took him away and gave him some gas to calm him further. Then they put the tubes in. The time span between him getting the Valium and him returning from the operating room was about forty minutes.
When he returned from surgery, he looked like I do after a night of drink too much whiskey. His face was puffy, and eyes were barely open and red. He was groggy and fussed a bit, but mostly he sat silent and still as he stared at the ground wanting to be held by -v-.
After the surgery, the doctor said that Ezra had a lot of fluid behind both ear drums and a slight inflammation, and that everything went smoothly during the operation.
Now we are home, and his mood is good. He has been smiling and eating. He did have some trouble walking at first, but now is walking with balance.
Now I only hope the tubes will help him hear and become less susceptible to getting those fucking ear infections.
