How Could This Have Happened?
Teresa was at a loss for words. “So… so, what exactly does this mean?…” What happened to cause him to lose that portion of his ear? “He’s just a kid!” you say. The doctor went on to explain that Timo would not be able to just remove that portion of his eardrum on his own. He would have needed to have suffered serious trauma to the area, and either Timo or Teresa would have been able to detect such an injury without difficulty.
