Spidermonkey had his ear appointment and the infection and the polyp are GONE!  He still has three holes in his new eardrum, but one of them is healing already and the other two may heal by themselves.  Seems things could go three ways.
1.  Everything heals up and his new ear drum is declared a success.
2.  It stays clean and uninfected, but the holes don't close.  He's need a smaller op to patch them.
3.  Infection recurs or the drum retracts while trying to heal itself and he needs the major op again.

Two weeks ago, we were pretty much staring down the barrel of #3.  Now #1 suddenly looks quite likely.  Keep everything crossed for him, please.

On the downside, I now have an ear infection.  Over-identification with Spidermonkey, or just too many nights of earplugs?


His 12th birthday last week went well.  He and his friends had a great time trying out new tricks on the climbing wall, and then we took both Small Monkeys skating.  His main present was a bass guitar, which he's really into and doing pretty well with for only one week's practice.  I suppose all those violin lessons may have helped...  Don't think the band he's in at school has a name yet, but they can almost play a Green Day song!

I asked Spidermonkey for the name of the song, but he doesn't know it. Or the lyrics. Seems they have no-one in the band who's actually willing to sing.
