After much travail, I'm back to where I was when I realized that the eyes would have to be replaced. That task has been completed and the eyes now move smoothly and easily side to side. I have reattached the eyebrow cords and the jaw cord (which I also had to cut), and I've reattached the back of the head. Now I can proceed with the detail "make-up" painting, form the eyebrows and choose a wig. Oh... and about those missing ears. They're still missing. I think I'll have to make my own out of foam and Magic-Sculpt.
