Ethan's surgery is scheduled for 4:30pm tomorrow. The surgeon thinks he may be running ahead of schedule so he has requested that we arrive at 2:45pm with the possibility that the surgery may happen earlier. The main part of the surgery will be perfomed by Dr. Hopper, the plastic surgeon. He will repair Ethan's macrostomia (lip), repair his lip muscles under the macrostomia, and take off the ear tags. Another doctor that we have not met will perform the other part of the surgery, Dr. Perkins. Ethan's regular ENT doctor, Dr. Sie, was unavailable to do surgery tomorrow. Dr. Perkins will snip Ethan's frenulum and clean out his ears. He will also check to see if Ethan has any fluid left in his ears from an earlier ear infection.
