let's go with attache

Grant got up in the middle of the night with an earache, and yes, he is a teenager.  So I took him to the doctor and they vacuumed the big wad of wax out of his left ear, but not until we gave him some Versed.  He is kind of a pain on sedatives, so sure that he can walk when he can't.  You think you can do these things, Nemo, but you can't!  And it looks like he still has a hole in his eardrum, so they are going to do surgery to repair it.  I blame John for this--his family is the one with all the ear problems, in case I haven't mentioned it before.

That's all for now.
