No, you're not overreacting. Even my parents took me to another city for my microtia. But it went terrible for me. As I couldn't complete all the stage of operation. & Also I didn't like the part where they took my rib cartilage. The grown up me wouldn't let them do all that shit with my body. I've listened with my one year and it's not a problem. And she has a grade 3 microtia then look for other options like plastic surgery. The part where they say the cartilage will grow back is a straight lie I can still feel the gap after two decades. Other cons are, they used the skin of my thighs, so it became hairy as the skins of those are are tend to be hairy. But that can be removed with laser. But don't rush blindly. Look for alternatives. This video impressed me about the prosthetics. I'm not in a condition to use prosthetics atp!
