After Ear


Not for the squeamish, but it is what it is.

This is the surgery we traveled to California to achieve. Basically, they use a Dremel type tool to make a hole through the bone, and carefully separate some parts of the ear that I'm a little fuzzy about. Then, they use a skin graft from the thigh to form a ear canal, using the membrane to fashion an eardrum as well.
