Always the Charmer

Levi has had trouble with his nose his whole life. It seems he has a constant cold 12 months of the year. He was put on allergy medicine which seemed to help only for a short time. He is restless at night and doesn't get a good nights sleep....ever. It's sad to listen to him at night having trouble breathing and he'll come up to you and say, "Mom, I need to see a doctor and get my nose fixed!" We are doing just that. We took him to an ear, nose, and throat specialist. As it turns out, Lee may have to have his adenoids out (they are blocking 60% of his airway). He still has to do some allergy testing to make sure that is the right move.

While waiting Levi charmed all the staff and his Doctor. They just adored him and couldn't believe he was only 2, almost 3, with his vocabulary. (If I may brag) He was very confident and chatted away while being very brave. They fell in love with him as most do. He certainly can be charming when he wants to be;)

Looking down the scope.
Lee after they put his nose to sleep. They had to give him drops in his nose that tasted horrible so he got a sucker.

That is the device they put down his nose. Poor baby! He was a brave little boy.
