Hello. I just read through your question.
It is possible that the testicle will still decend on its own and surgery will not be necessary. As long as the doctor can palate a testicle on examination, there is nothing to worry about. This means he has to be certain that the testicle exists and is in good position to decend. It sounds like he has done this already so we can be calm for now.
