No More Ear Infection

YEA!!!!!!!! Addison is finally over her ear infection that she has been battling for about a month now. We have been seeing one of the Dr's at the office (but not her PCP) since we have been going to Urgent Care over the last month. Today I called and asked the nurses to have Dr. Gladstone (her pediatrician) call me to talk about Addison's chronic ear infections. Dr. Gladstone is such a GREAT Dr. She called me after reviewing Addison's chart and talked to me for about 10 minutes while I was at work. She asked if we could come in today at 4 and she would see Addison herself and talk to us about going to see ENT if we needed to.

Well after taking a good look at Addison she told us her ear infection is gone for now. She still has some fluid in her ears and that could be there for 6-8 weeks after an infection. She spent about 20 minutes with us talking about what the future might hold if Addison continues to battle ear infections (tubes of course.)

I take care of very sick babies at the hospital, and I know in the whole scheme of things ear infections are completely not a big deal, but Dr. Gladstone made us feel very comfortable and answered all of our questions.

So for now Addison is healthy, happy as ever and cute as can be. Tonight she was screaming, then laughing, screaming, then laughing, screaming, then laughing...it was SO cute. She is such a little doll. We just adore her.
