update on Katriana: She made it through. Dr came out and said that the cholesteatoma disease was worse than we had hoped for. It was completely wrapped around the two earbones that were left as well as one of her tasting nerves, so they had to remove all of them. They were successfully able to graft a new eardrum. He wants to keep her till at least morning and until she is eating and they can effectively manage her pain. She is to lay low and do nothing much for they next week, then we have to come see him again for a follow up. Then again at 4-6 weeks. Next surgery expected for 6 months from now to replace the earbones. He expects her hearing to be worse for the time being. No jostling around or submersion for now. On the plus side no major complications!
