Refrigerator Mother Not

Shortly before my mother was diagnosed with her last cancer visitor she commented to me that my son seemed to be losing the words he had started using. I had noticed this myself but was doing an impersonation of an ostrich hoping I was imagining it.
Immediately his constant ear infections sprang to mind so off I trotted with a referral to an ENT (Ear, nose and throat specialist) in my hot little paw, being all smug in the knowledge I knew, oh yes, I just knew he was going to recommend grommets for my boy's ears to get rid of this fluid build up behind his ear drum that was so obviously the cause of him losing his speech.
