Taylor Gurry

Taylor is our precious 8 month old baby girl. She is a sweetheart with huge smiles, sparkling eyes, and the cutest giggle. This is one part of her journey - but most of her days are filled with cuddles, laughter, and play.

All about ears

Well, we still haven't heard the results from our test on Friday. Sigh. We should never be surprised by the inefficiencies of the medical system, but....In any case, we've put it behind us and we're moving forward. We do hope to hear soon. We're essentially hoping to find out if she did have a seizure, what kind it was, and what we need to do next (medicine, just wait, etc). We're hoping for just waiting and seeing, but as always, we'll trust the experts.

Our big news this week is that Taylor is going to have her first surgery in one week - next Thursday. But...we're actually very excited!! She's getting ear tubes! She has been so miserable this winter and the ear specialist confirmed yesterday that she needs tubes. Jacob has had them twice, so it seems much less serious than our first go-around. She will have to go under anesthesia briefly, but it's literally a 10 minute procedure. They've worked like a charm for Jacob, so we're hoping Taylor can be ear infection free for a long time. Even now, she doesn't have an ear infection, but her ears are full of fluid. This definitely impacts her hearing and likely her balance. The poor kid doesn't need any more challenges, so bring on the ear tubes!!
