Cody had to have tympanoplasty surgery on April 9. After his second set of ear tubes had fallen out, one of his eardrums never healed and had a hole in it. To fix this he had to have a tiny skin graff behind his ear to use to fix the hole. I am amazed that a doctor can perform a surgery like that done inside such a tiny spot like an ear! Every thing went well, Cody was pretty dizzy and in pain imediately after the surgery but that didn't last long. The next day you would never know he had surgery. I was very proud of him! Being in the hospital sure made me feel grateful that my kids are all healthy and being in and out of hospitals is not a regular way of life for us. I have great respect for parents that have children with illness and diseases.
Post surgery, taking quite a snooze, it took him a while to wake up, that medicine is some good stuff!
Later in the day after the pain pills kicked in and the dizziness subsided Cody got to go out to Uncle Richie's and choose a puppy. He has been waiting forever for these pups to be born. I got out voted and I guess we will be having another dog soon!
