A young boy's wish to just get through a day without strange stares and ridicule is about to come true.
Victor was born with microtia. It's when the outer ear doesn't develop fully during pregnancy. Hearing on that side can be muffled, but what suffers most is a child's self esteem.Through her foundation, Lewin offers what she calls "Earicles" or ear miracles for children with failed reconstructions.When he was younger, Nwadike underwent conventional surgery. A rib was used to fashion a new ear, but the result didn't stop the bullying.
In the operating suite, Lewin carefully removes the failed ear, aligns the new implant and covers it with fascia and skin grafts. One week later, it's time for the big reveal.
