Otitis, Y U Come back?

After an epic week with my sister and her kids, Ghadi came from school yesterday, complaining from his ear... AGAIN
we thought it would pass, but we heard him just before midnight struggling and crying from pain,
so next is the usual procedure...
called the doctor
Jamil ran to the pharmacy
the recommended pain reliever is not in stock
called the doctor again
Jamil ran to another pharmacy
and Ghadi struggling and trying not to cry...
at last he got the Advil and fell asleep

we'll have to take him tomorrow to the Doctor...
I think that we'll have to get these tubes into his eardrum cuz it's becoming an endless trauma...

Back to last week,
It was awesome by all means!!!
Live Music, a Rahbani Play, Trips to Faraya snowing, to Jbeil and Chair lift in Jounieh, hiking in Zgharta... 
and above all, amazing time and hanging out with my lovely nieces!
all details and photos will follow this week...
here's a sneak peak of our hiking in Zgharta - north lebanon

Ghadi's Ear infection, again & school feedback!


Ghadi is having his third Otitis media within 4 months!
It all started in November and then we fell into non-stop mid-ear inflammation caused by the fluids behind the eardrum. It's not going away and it's causing hearing defect every time it's infected.
I had to pass by his school today to explain his situation, his teacher was relieved to know the cause because she noticed with another teacher that Ghadi doesn't respond sometimes when she calls his name...
On the other hand, her feedback about Ghadi was more than I expected.
Every mom would say her kids are brilliant, but i'm proudly saying with all the modesty in the world, that "Ghadi is having excellent visual memory and he's so dynamic and cooperative at class."-quoted :)
yest he's not into team spirit yet.
he doesn't like to share much
and he's not patient enough when it comes to drawing or coloring... 
hmmmmmmmmmmmm....
we've got to do something about that!
