Conner's surgery took about an hour and a half and it was much more involved than the tonsils. The doctor made an incicion behind his ear where it connects to the head and then he folded his ear forward in order to place the skin graft over his ear drum. The surgery went very well and Conner did good except for when he was trying to wake up he was pretty out of control. It took 4 nurses to hold him down as he ripped his ear bandage off and tried to pull out his IV.
