Today we had an appt. at the Dr. for my two beautiful girls. They had both come back from vacation suffering from symptoms brought on by the wet, humid weather in south Texas. While we were there I asked the dr. to check on something that has been causing kas emotional distress for the past 3 months. She has a wart that she calls her mole on the back of her right leg. During this time she has worn a littlest pet shop band aid to cover it every single waking moment of the day.This mole/wart has been causing my baby emotional distress for months.
The Dr. today proceeded to tell her horror stories about how warts are contagious and if she continued to mess with it she could actually cause them to spread all over her body even to her face, she was mortified. She then gave her the option to have it shaved off or to leave it alone. Being that my sweertie is a big chicken she started to whimper and made us all laugh. After some soul searching and imagining herself with warts on her nose she decided to have it removed.
She was a real trooper and only squeezed my hand a little too tight and only shed a few tears. Anyway after an 8 week treatment of freeze off she should be completely wart free. And I will not be forced to sue anyone for her mental anguish as she had suggested to me on more than one occasion. LOL I will have to make plans for all of the money I will be saving on those blasted band aids.
Brittany has been suffering from severe ear infections for many months now after suffering from a busted ear drum in November. She was then seen by a specialist who treated her for a fungus in her ear and then diagnosed her with TMJ which is a condition of her grinding her teeth causing damage to her jaw due to stress. Imagine my calm, cool and collected daughter suffering from stress, go figure. Well since I am not happy with the diagnosis I requested she be seen by another specialist and asked that she have some other tests run. I want to get to the bottom of this and see my baby pain free.
I am so glad that my two boys are a bit more healthy than their sisters or i would spend a lot more time at the pediatricians office. LOL Just another day in the life of my adventurous family,

Warts are the worst! I'm glad that she went ahead and let him starting treating it. She will be so happy to have it all the way gone!
Poor Brittany and her ear....I hope the new doctor can get to the bottom of that and get it taken care of. I know she has had a lot of pain with it.
Here's to many months without a visit to the pediatrician (what all of us moms want!)
I have one who has to see the doc every few months. Two that are so healthy I forget to take at all, and one just turned three and when he is done with vaccinations(next year), I have a feeling it will be the same thing. Maybe I'll for get to take him in before his vaccinations??
Prayers for some results.
when I was little i used to get warts on my hands i guess from playing in the dirt or whatever but i was mortified by them too! mine eventually just went away and never returned thank god haha! Im glad she was able to get it removed :)
poor Britt and those ear infections i hope yall get to the bottom of it soon :)
