Our nurse and I started talking about boys vs. girls and trachs last night. Not sure why...but I was just curious about how many boys vs. girls have traches around here.

100% boy here,
at the hospital here in Cape Town, we did a similar poll, and it was found that there are definitely more boys with trachs than girls.
