Waiting

Well, things have changed a bit from what we originally thought. Last night at the preop with Drs. Reinisch and Roberson they checked Robbies ear out and yes it had an exposure and yes the medpor needs to be changed out. This was a big blow to us and I have to admit I was in a bit of a state of shock. They said Robbies retraction from the skin graphs shrinking was the worst they had seen. So the game plan today is to replace the medpor, replace the skin in the canal where the problem areas are, and replace the skin behind the left ear where again the skin graph shrunk. This means that today they will not release the medpor from the head because they don't want to do to much so that the skin can settle to the new medpor. Which this all means there will have to be another surgery in the future. I will post more when we get back to the hotel. Surgery should take around 3-4 hours.
