I hope that you can gain some insight from the DT and get on a course for no more infection

S & J,

Hey, I just realized you had posted again on the first page and that Jake is having breathing troubles, bad secretions, etc... didn't want to ignore that, I just didn't see it yesterday. I hope that this clears up and doesn't require anything else. I know it does seem like one thing after another - well - it probably IS one thing after another. I'm sorry guys.

Christy

No need to apologize, Christy...it's good to focus on the good stuff!!!...I just posted because we all know how it is...good things, bad things. So many little things are momentously appreciated good things for all of us trach parents. Who would have thought that I would post to "relative" strangers about the wonderful accomplishment of using a walker for example. Our world is just a bit different than most and that's why communicating on this board is such a good thing.
