more info on the ear

What you are actually seeing in the picture of the post op ear is the new ear canal. Currently there is a plug in the ear, kind of like an ear plug you would use to reduce noise. Yeah, the red color is blood, but it is not seeping blood. The only time that happens is when he lays on it there tends to be a red spot on the pillow. There are also some stitches behind the ear. After a time of healing, the plug will come out. It seems not to bother Robby at all, it's almost like he doesn't know it is there.

If you look carefully at the picture of Robby sitting in the car on the day of surgery you can see part of his skin graft. It is on his right leg, high on his thigh.

He has had no Tylenol today, and is full of energy.

We took Dan and Rachael to the airport this afternoon and now are just kind of hanging around the hotel watching football, taking naps and playing with matchbox cars.
