Hi, my son Payne swims all the time. He started with a pair of ear plugs. It fit just fine in his trach. Now he uses his pmv. He does great with that..Im glad to hear of another child with a trach that swims.

i would love so much to be able to swim, but surely the water would get in around the tube even if the tube was blocked off!???
