Luke's latest

My poor little tank has had cronic ear infections for the last about 6 months. He has had several ruptured eardrums, and the Dr. was worried that his hearing was being affected, so...tubes. We had a 6:00 am checkin at Primary Children's. This first pic is Luke and his little friend "R" who was in for basically a skull reformation surgery. This place is so full of miracles, but I have to admit that I cried for his mom as the surgeons took him away, and said a prayer of thanks that Luke had such an easy procedure in store for him.


Waiting...

Realizing he was not there for a sticker.

Tank and mom waiting for the nurse to take us to the surgical waiting room.

Anyone who knows me knows that I love these hospital socks. I was very jealous of them. Cute lil toes, and I.D. badge.

Here is my cute happy boy in the surgical waiting room. Shortly after this pic, they gave him a "Happy Purple Cup" It totally knocked him for a loop. I have pics of this but will keep them to ourselves. :)
The surgery went off without a hitch, and after a nap Tank was a totally different boy. He is already talking and singing alot more. I feel so blessed to live in a time of this modern medicine.

I am so glad they did the tubes for you! I love that we have Primary's so close! You can't walk in the place without being grateful you aren't there for something more serious!

Ah....Tubes, blessed Tubes, how I love thee, let me count the ways....I think they saved our marriage when Nathan got them he was 18 months. :)
SO glad things went well, HE is SUCH a cute little guy!

I am glad all went well, we have seen a couple of different ENT's there at PCMC and they always seem to do such a great job with the children.

Primary's can be a humbling place. We were there yesterday for Anna and we have been there several times for tubes. I hope that all went well cute little thing!
