There's Something In Her Ear!

Jeep and Aurelia came by today to see baby Jane and brought us some food from Salem Kitchen including some meatloaf, baked potatoes, and peas. We decided to eat in the den while we watched tv and Whit breastfed Jane. As we were finishing up, Whit leaned into the light and screamed, "Seth, there's something in her ear!" I'm normally the chill one when it comes to stuff like this, but given recent circumstances this response was at least expected, if not completely warranted. I've been experiencing ear problems for the past 2 months and the doctors haven't been able to find the cause, nor have I seen any improvement. My ear has been painful, I've had some nasty discharge, and I've lost much of the hearing on my right side. Surely our child is not experiencing what I've been gong through. Is it contagious? Is our daughter going to lose her hearing? Is it the same discharge I've been dealing with? Nope, it was just a piece of Whit's meatloaf.
