Two years ago, Army Pvt. Shamika Burrage almost died when she was ejected from her car during a crash in Texas. Afterward, when she woke up in the hospital, she wasn’t whole. Her entire left ear was gone. But the now-21-year-old is on the path to recovery. In a procedure hailed as the “first of its kind” in the Army, an ear was reconstructed and “grown” under the skin of her right forearm, according to the Army. No prosthetics were needed. Instead, plastic surgeons used the soldier’s own cartilage. The ear was later attached to Burrage’s head by surgeons at William Beaumont Army Medical Center in El Paso. The Army said Burrage recovered her hearing and that the operation was a success, according to a statement on Monday.

Looks like she hasn't been skipping ear day.

Highly misleading article. That piece of cartilage on the side of your head helps to direct sound waves into the ear canal but doesn’t have anything to do with hearing. That all occurs internally. This operation is all about physical appearance and not hearing.

I thought that was odd too. Either the author of the story didn't know that or he was expecting the average American to not know that.
