we've had a rough couple of a days with a sick little girl. penelope has three, that's right - three, ear infections all in one ear. she's had single ear infections, single in both ears at once, double ear infections, even double ears in both, but never a TRIPLE.
turns out dr hadn't seen it either. She has an inner ear, middle ear and outer ear all together. so needless to say, she has not been a happy girl. thank goodness for the tubes surgery we did in october. makes for a messy bunch of drainage, but at least that's not in her ear - she would have been inconsolable iwth that pressure.
she has been a pretty good girl through it... except at naptime, bedtime or medecine time - but when your poor ear looks like this, it's to be expected i suppose:
after some drops, oral antibiotics and a dr visit, she seems tos be doing better.. we still have to keep an eye on her and hopefully it clears up soon, next stop if ER for IV antibiotics, which we hope to avoid at all costs...
a few photos of my sick girl....
