Mikayla's Ears....



As some of you know Mikayla's been having a lot of problems with her ears being infected since she's had her ears pierced. We tried several different things & finally just ended up putting her studs back in about a month ago, hoping it would clear up completely.

Well last Thursday, she wanted me to change her earrings. I wanted to check her ears first, though, to make sure the infection had cleared up completely. So after taking out the earring in her left ear, I was happy to note that it looked 100% better. So far, so good. So I bent her ear back so I cold get a good look at the back of it, and what I originally thought was dried up infection starting coming out of her ear. I was amazed that it was so big & in such a perfect little tube shape. Well after taking a much closer look... it was the actual plastic backing to the earring! Crazy!!! When we put the studs back in, it felt like her ears were a little hard at the pierce site, but I took that to be because of the infection. I never imagined it was a plastic backing! Don't ask me how in the world it got there!!!

Hey, this is Leslie. My oldest daughter had the exact same thing happen with the plastic back. I think we should try to get those banned. We thought the same thing, but when I turned her ear backwards, I could see it. Anyway, just letting you know you're not alone on that one.
