Me again,
I forgot to mention...I'm taking Eric back to the ENT doc Eric had tubes put in at 1yr old...they stayed in till about 4 months ago. The tubes are out now, and the doc wanted to wait to see how he does without them. He also noticed Eric has a small hole in his eardrum, so he wanted that to heal also. He didn't want to see Eric for about 6 months, but since then I noticed he has a copious amounts of wax in his ears...too much for me to clean out with a q-tip.(anyways you should never poke around inside with Q-tips..only around the opening ), He also failed a tympanic membrane test at his physical last week...totally flat-lined on both ears. So I made an appointmen for next week....to make sure his hearing isn't the problem........Dolly

Hey Dolly, Thanks for reminding me about a hearing check! Aidan hasn't had one in about a year...it's about time for one. Aidan also has a ton of ear wax coming out of his ears and I don't even mess with his ears since it just freaks me out, but its a LOT! He had ear tubes, also, and has one still in and the other is out and his ENT wants to wait and see how he does without them. Of course, his ENT reitred, so I'll be looking for our THIRD ENT in 4 years...augh! Who told them they could just retire and leave us hangin, huh? Anyhoo...the speech thing does concern me, too, as I'm sure it does for a lot of worried mom's out there...but you're right...our kids just need some extra time and help getting there. I just can't wait until Aidan can tell me about his day Take care and thanks for the support, everyone! Staci
