Trevor's Ear Surgery

Trevor has been trouble with his ears a lot lately.  Between the double ear infections and not being able to hear us very well we decided to take him to have his hearing checked.  He was not able to hear us nearly as well as he should so after some tests we were referred to an ear, nose and throat Dr.  The Dr. confirmed that he wasn't hearing well due to all the fluid behind his ear drums.  He scheduled Trevor to have tubes in his ears and possible have his tonsils removed.  This past Friday was his surgery.  We went in at 6 am to get registered and set up in his pre-op room.  He changed into his operating pj's which were several sizes too big.  He wasn't able to eat or drink anything so was extremely hungry but did very well.  While waiting for surgery he blew up several gloves to play with.
 Time for surgery.
Trevor had no idea what to expect so was super excited all morning.  They told him he could have an otter pop as soon as he was done so he was ready to go.  They said they have never seen anyone so excited for surgery.  The surgery was quick and they didn't end up having to take his tonsils.  It went really well and he is feeling much better.
