Her first reaction while seeing herself for the first time with a new &#8220;normal-looking&#8221; ear is thrilling. This video reminds me the huge power that engineering has to completely revolutionise people&#8217;s lives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Prosthetic Ear Helps Treat Ari&#039;s Microtia | Body Parts\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/N6NCQc0aK10?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-post-date\"><time datetime=\"\"><\/time><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-post-author\"><div class=\"wp-block-post-author__avatar\"><img alt='' src='https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/e6b3e8889611e644bac1823a048f775dc30c8e102e34fd7b9a92d228a2e6d553?s=48&#038;d=mm&#038;r=g' srcset='https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/e6b3e8889611e644bac1823a048f775dc30c8e102e34fd7b9a92d228a2e6d553?s=96&#038;d=mm&#038;r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-48 photo' height='48' width='48' \/><\/div><div class=\"wp-block-post-author__content\"><p class=\"wp-block-post-author__byline\">Written by<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-post-author__name\"><\/p><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HI EVERYONE!
