The raccoon permanently disfigured Charlotte who lost her right ear, upper lip, nose, and parts of her right cheek.

They were going to grow her new ear by placing the cartilage into her arm. Once ready, the new ear would be replacing Charlotte’s missing ear.
At the age of 14, Charlotte finally got the chance to wear earrings!
She had collected over 50 pairs of earrings! Sharon said the surgery has turned Charlotte’s life around and even her outlook on life has improved!
