Annalise was a complete and totally trooper during her first surgery! She marched off with Al the morning of her surgery and was sweet and pleasant the entire time! The staff remarked to Al at how surprised they were at how sweet and compliant she was during the entire procedure. She has her adenoids removed and a tube put in her right ear. The adenoid removal is to hopefully help with her sleep apnea and the tube was to hopefully help her poor ear recover from the untreated ear infections. The Doctor is hopeful that the tube will help but realistically is doubtful. When we go back in 2 weeks, her hearing will be retested and a CT scan will be taken to see if the cysts in her inner ear have subsided. If things have not changed in her ear, we will be referred to a specialist who focuses on ear drum reconstruction. Until then, here are some great pictures of our sweet girl!
