Ear Specialist
We met with the Ear Specialist on Monday, he told us that we will have to have an MRI done when Ryder is 5 years old and they will reconstruct his outer ear when he is 7 or 8 years old. They actually use a piece of one of his ribs to reconstruct the ear! Amazing... The total reconstruction will be a series of surgeries at Primary Childrens in Salt Lake, but they will only have to do the reconstruction once, they will not have to repeat it when he gets older - thank heavens! So for now we have to have his hearing checked periodically and monitor any ear infections very closely, what a relief!
