Hi....

I am a Husband Angel has had her Trach for over 2 Years now..What a Wonderful Boxing Day Gift....

She HATED IT!!....All she said for the Longest Time was OFF OFF OFF!!...Meaning get this thing out of me..It brough me to Tears....

It took her forver to get use to it..I still dont think she is... ....I think she would still be telling that to me if she was able to.....

Angel is on a Vent around the Clock..I think I can do her Care with my Eyes Closed now..Let me go and Try it....*I better not Michelle may hunt me down*.....

I think the Biggest issue is finding good Nursing...We have 2 Wonderful Nurses now...I would not trade them for anything....You do have to watch them for sometime...I did at any rate.They say they know Trach Care.But most really do NOT.....

Post any Questions you have and Michelle will get back to you ....

I am not on often....Good Luck....I hope your Suction Machine is not Built into your hand and it gets Turned off as ours never does.....

B and
