michael had a check-up on his ear today.
a few days after he had the fat-patch repair done, he got an infection. it pushed the patch out of place.
it hasn't healed, and most likely won't.
in the future, certainly after cold and flu season has dropped off, we are looking at a fascia patch. a fascia patch is where they take a small piece of muscle from above the ear, and place it behind the perforation. then they pack it to make sure it stays in place. but, we don't want to do that until we have gotten through this winter season. probably apr/may/jun.
