Today Brody and I met with his ENT at Children's Hospital. I went into this meeting with a lot of conviction, and ready to pull out all the stops to do what was necessary to help Brody.
The doctor was in total agreement that tubes are necessary, and I didn't even need to push the subject.
After looking at Brody's tonsils, and discussing his lack of sore throats/strep throat and the fact that the tonsils are not connected to the ears, we decided to hold off on those.
The doctor then used a scope with a camera on the end to go up Brody's nose and check out those pesky adenoids. He did great, and stopped any whimpering when I promised him I would get him a cookie when he was done.
Brody's doc said his adenoids were large and she felt good about taking them out since he would already need anesthesia with the tubes.
Brody goes in for surgery two weeks from today.
