Anthony just turned two and has his trach for one year. We have used this page to help us out a lot. Of course we were real scared when they thought he would need a trach. But by being able to use the info at your site it helped us to see things would not be so bad. Thanks for this page.
Anthony was born with a sever anoxic incident at birth and he was on time, there is no explanation for what has happened. He now has severe spastic cp and is confined to a wheel chair. But he is the greatest kid around. He surely has brightened our life a whole lot!
Update - Our dear Anthony passed away January 24 of 2000.
