Surgery Went Well
We had to be at same day surgery at 6:15 this morning. After vitals and other assessments, Sophia was in surgery by 7:30.
They put tubes in both of her ears and did a hearing test in the operating room.
By 10am, we were home.
Sophia is pretty tired and very grumpy as would be expected given the day she has had.
The audiologist said her hearing was perfect in one ear and borderline perfect in the other. This was great news, as Sophia had exhibited about 30% hearing loss prior to surgery due to fluid on her ears. It would have been pretty devastating if the fluid was removed and the hearing loss was not. Anyway, she is getting lots of love and lots of naps and will hopefully be back to her cheery self in no time.

Those test results are great. I am so glad the tubes have made such an obvious improvement in her hearing.
