My heart goes out to you. My son, Gage, will be going tomorrow to have his decannulation after having his trach for 10+ years. I am so sorry for your loss.
@becausethenight1 Not exactly. Everything pointed to Tommy being ready, however, he got bronchopneumonia a few days later and the trach was put back in. Trach or no trach, he would have died. Thanks for the concern. I know with every fiber of my being that everything was done right for my son.
Tommy had many other issues besides the trach including lung damage and congenital heart defects. Sadly, Tommy passed away unexpectedly on August 20, 2008, just 9 days after his decannulation.
What a precious little boy! I hope that all goes well little Tommy. God bless! Thanks to my friend Peter for sharing this with me. Here's 5 stars for cuteness!

I can't help but wonder if his life would have been prolonged if the trach wasn't taken out. Did they take it out too soon?
