Home again after 12 days in the hospital. Eveything went well. Had first trache cange, that was hard. But I survived.
Got spoiled by hospital, plus trusty suction device blew up at 5: 00 Friday afternoon. Our new resp. group brought a portable one out.
My father in law, and his dad in law created a suction device that is stronger and gets the job done in one time instead of two or three times down. My suction needs dropped by half when they switched my trache to a smaller one. Hopefully that will lessen more.
More soon.
