Finally Posting, Again

I feel as if it's been ages since I posted, although, in actuality, it's only be less than a week. So many things have been going on, and trying to get down to my computer after the kids are in bed is a major feat, especially since sometimes I don't get finished with everything else until 11 p.m. and then I know I'm going to have interrupted sleep so I quickly get into bed.

We had Owen's hearing checked again last week, and sure enough, he has fluid in his ears. His hearing is flat on one ear, and barely above flat in the other. I cringed as we sat in the soundproof booth and I clearly heard sounds that he didn't even acknowledge. And it's not that he was busy with anything else, there was nothing else to do but hear the sounds. It made me sad that he's been going through life the last few years without being able to hear certain sounds...what if he can't hear the birds singing in the morning? What if he couldn't hear Giles meow (our now gone cat)? And, more significantly, what if he is not hearing certain things I say to him, or songs I sang to him?

So, we will get tubes put in as soon as possible, and of course, the doctor's office that I previously spoke so fondly of (I'm being sarcastic here), still has not called me back to tell me what my next step is. I'm guessing they have filed my son's chart again...so I called Cedar-Sinai and spoke to the person who asked me to be on the parental advisory board and asked her for a referral. She told me she would get right back to me. Within an hour, she had three doctors' names, and I told her that I needed it done as soon as possible, not in three months. She told me that I could use another doctor's name who referred me, and get in as soon as possible. Now, I'm usually not one to cut in line, but I'm tired of being hung up because every doctor's office is overbooked, and/or their staff is incompetent. So, I am going to use my contacts and get it done with a doctor who comes highly recommended. I'm not the first to do it, and surely not the last.

Erik is gone for the weekend, so I have very little time to post. I'll write more later...

Sorry about the hearing test. I remember sitting in that booth with Callum and willing him with all my heart to acknowledge the sound.

If he's having frequent fluid build up then it might be worth asking about the adenoids as well, they can block the ear canal and make it hard for fluid to drain.

Has Owen had has x-rays for AAI? they may want you to do them before you have surgery.

Dr. Nina Shapiro at UCLA is very good.
