The boys had drainage tubes surgically installed in their ears today. This should eliminate their recurring ear infections, and very possibly make way for some astounding strides in language acquisition.
The attending nurse, ENT doctor, and anesthiologist all told us that Caleb and Sam would be cranky after coming out of the anesthesia. Like, really cranky. Inconsolable. Unlike anything you've seen before.
And they were.
But the medical folks also said that these were not going to be cries due to pain, only due to the confusion, fear, and discombobulation that follows anesthesia. After a nap and a bit to eat, they said, the boys would be back to normal, as if nothing ever happened at all.
And they were.
