Tubes In... Owen Cranky

The surgery went well. It took 10 minutes. Then it was another 15 minutes until we saw Owen again. We were only separated for 25 minutes, but it was tortuous for me and Erik. He was very upset when he was returned to us. But that was probably because we weren't there when he woke up. He had a bunch of liquid in his ear and still a pretty bad infection. So we have antibiotic ear drops twice a day for 5 days. This is no fun... but it's better that two or three times a day of oral antibiotics for 10 days. So I'll take it. The last two times I've taken him to daycare, he's screamed bloody murder and reached for me when it's time for me to leave. It just breaks my heart. I HATE leaving him every day. Knowing it's only for four more months sometimes makes it better. But sometimes it's worse... because I wish it was now!
