Ears

Well the update is that Hans went to the Audiologist today and his left ear (always been the bad one) is filled with fluid and the tube (which was just put in, in February) is not in place.  (We did already know all this info from his 5 yr. ckup but for those of you that didn't know...)  So his Dr. wanted him to see the Audiologist to see how his ear actually was working.  He is below normal range of hearing for his left ear, which I guess was expected given the fact that he has fluid built up behind his ear.  So he is hearing a diminished amount in his left ear.  His right ear still has the tube in place and it's doing it's job because there is no fluid and he hearing is in the normal range.  (Not great, but normal.)  The biggest thing for me is that we haven't noticed huge differences in him lately (hearing related) so the Dr. and I am ok with leaving things as is until we do see a significant drop in hearing...  Please pray for Hans, that his ears start working right on their own!  It would be so great if we didn't have to put him through another surgery.  This last one he really was able to know what was going on and how he felt after the surgery and it was not good.
