Ear Doctor

Yesterday, we took Sam to the ear specialist, Dr.Sicard. He told us that Sam had such a bad ear infection that he could not conduct the hearing test until it cleared up. It is so hard to know when Sam has an ear infection because he does not get very fussy. He will see him back in 2 weeks. He also told us that Sam would need to have his tubes removed and new ones put in and we will discuss that when we come back in. We will be seeing the endocrinologist next week and the plastic surgeon the following week. PLease pray that we will find out what is causing his lack of growth and his delays. He is doing so well with his speech therapy, especially with his signing. He is much less frustrated now that he can communicate with everyone better. We are so thankful to have wonderful therapists to work with him. He is still pretty fearful to take any steps without help. We are hoping that he will be walking soon.
