Wendy that is excellent progress Steve has made!!! Im so happy things have made such a huge turn around for both you and Steve. If Steve doeant yet have tubes in his ears, it may be necessary. I did ok thru many HBO dives but sometimes had some trouble with my ears. Its a very simple out patient procedure to get tubes placed. Best part is they fall out on their own so he wont need any other surgeries after he would get them. Best wishes with the HBO, hope Steve will finally heal and put this behind him.
