Say What?

Jenna went jet skiing on Thursday at our family reunion last week.  She had 4 major spills.  She had a blast ...

Until ... she was in tears from pain in her ear.  I knew it was painful because this girl has an extremely high pain tolerance. 

We took her to after hours urgent care.  It was 30 SECONDS from the place where we were staying.  We had to wait 10 minutes for the doctor to arrive.

Swimmer's ear.  Painful.  Very painful.  The infection started so quickly.  She was put on antibiotic drops and numbing drops.

She didn't get any better.  In fact, she got worse.

We arrived home Sunday night.  Monday I took her in to our pediatrician.  She was shocked at the condition of her inner ear on both ears.  Two major ear infections with both ear drums ready to burst at any moment.  Congestion (thank you UT allergies) didn't help either.

Jenna can't hear very well.  Huh?  Is what we are constantly hearing from her. 

Last night we had fun in front of her mouthing random words.

Get better soon Jenna!
