If your ex has court ordered visitation rights you will have to return to court to get a new order, including requirements to have medical assistance. In light of the upcoming surgery it might be best to wait until your doctor oks the travel. Of course ex can come to Utah.

If there is no court ordered visitation, then your ex can be considered to have abandoned the child, and get no rights, or only those rights you allow.
