Another doctor came in and said that Don's throat was pretty tight before they put him under, and by the end of surgery they had to put the trach in because it was almost all the way closed up. Which means for the last 3 weeks( the last time he had a scope ran ) his airway has been slowly closing up. But for what reason ? Nothing in his diet or medicines has changed for the last 7 months!!

The jaw they said it's not infection due to the fact he's not running fevers. The doctor said if it was infected he wouldn't be able to stand someone pushing on it. She said the swelling should gradually start going down from this point on. Well we're staying another night as well. First we had troubles with our insurance company paying for a suction machine, then they only allowed us companies that wouldn't do service calls in our area. last the delivery guy didn't show up yesterday with the machine and they can't get a hold of anyone today, so tomorrow we can go home.thanks to everyone for replying to me!!
