Good news! Clayton was discharged from the ENT doctor today! His ears looked "perfect" and he passed his hearing test with flying colors (even though he was trying his best to cry during the whole thing!). Dr. Bower has been seeing Clayton since his discharge from the NICU. He's performed two or three surgeries on him, and he's watched him go from "failure to thrive" to FULLY THRIVING! He was laughing today about how Clayton was SOOOO far from looking like the micro-preemie he had once been. He's like the rest of us, so proud of the progress Clayton's made over these few years. I almost got a little teary over the whole thing--we've never heard a doctor say "discharged" before--we're usually adding doctors instead. Definitely a reason to celebrate around here!

fantastic news Ashley. So fantastic. Failure to thrive sucks, probably the only thing I really do understand about Clayton. HUGS
This is such exciting news --- I'm sure there are days when it doesn't feel like he's making such swift progress, but I am amazed at how quickly he is overcoming his obstacles!
