Stop That Noise!

When I was 9 or 10, I had a problem with my ears. There was fluid backed up in them, and it caused this god awful ringing in my ears. Also at this time, we lived in an apartment. In the ceiling of my room were a bunch of pipes and at night, you could hear them expand and contract, and that also made a horrible banging and clanging noise. Between that and my ears ringing, I thought I was gonna go nuts! For about a year or so, I got very little sleep. Finally the Dr's figured out that I needed to have tubes put in my ears to drain the fluid, and later we finally moved out of that dumb apartment and moved to a more quieter house.
