Amy
Have mailed Minnie and I'm sure she will get back to you, her surgery was the same as they are planning for John
Tell John the tracie doesn't hurt, they have to suction it when it gets a bit clogged thats just a bit uncomfortable. When they remove it they just leave it to heal, so then you have to remember to put pressure on the dressing when you talk or you blow it open again and healing takes a bit longer, (yep once I could talk I was away, and I would forget, but it healed fine)
Ask away anything you think of Amy..
We are all here for you
Sunshine.. love and hugs
Helen
