Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | I am back no thank you to the internet. Somehow this thing got a virus again and it was nasty. I cured it myself and so far, cross whatever, and it's working. I go to Pittsburgh a week from Monday to see the Plastic Surgeon and see what and if he has come up with anything new to try. I hope he takes this trach out.As you know it is a pain in the rump. I didn't realize that taking care of meds and feeding thru the tube would take so much time. HAPPY EASTER ALL AND KEEP THE SMILES GOING. Luv ya all.
Since posting this. UPMC, Pittsburgh, Oct 2011 until Jan. I averaged about 2 to 3 surgeries a week there. w Can't have jaw made as bone is deteroriating steaily that is left in jaw. Mersa is to blame. Feeding tube . Had trach for 4mos. Got it out April.
