Chris took Jansen to see Dr. Jones yesterday to look at his "new ear" and the sore that has been concerning us. Dr. Jones looked at it and it is exposed cartilage.Info: When they cut to put the cartilage in they always cut very thin to give the best definition of the ear. In this one area of Jansens ear...it was too thin causing it to split.
So this means :We are off to surgery on Tuesday, December 7, to do a skin graft for this area. The surgery should take about 2 hours and it will be out-patient. Jansen will be wearing the head netting for another 10 days and no physical activity until Jan. 4. This whole thing is upsetting to Chris and I, but we know it has to be done before Jansen gets an infection.
We trust Dr. Jones and know that he wants to do what is best for Jansen and his "new ear." We are all still very excited about the way his ear looks, minus the sore on the top. Please continue to pray for Jansen and a successful surgery on Tuesday.
After getting this news yesterday we ran out to listen to the wonderful TCES students at The Christmas Program and this little guy was so cute singing (or should I say socializing)...
