Looking for a tracheotomy friend for my son...

Hello all!
I just found this website and am very excited for my son, joshua.  He's had a tracheotomy since 2005 and we've had no success with decannulation.  Right now I'd like to find a male friend for Josh, either a peer or older teenage boy or young adult who could talk with Josh about living with a tracheotomy.  It would be great if he lived in our area...Portland, OR and if he was like Josh in that he's ambulatory, not on oxygen or vent dependent.  If you fit that bill and are interested, please contact me.
