I need more info???

Hi all~
I'm new to this site and was wondering if someone could give me more info from their experience :)
I have a 2/12 yr old w/ a Trach due to vocal cord paralysis (or as I like to make clear that it is her adductors that are paralyzed not both vocal cords).  I was told by her ENT (that she has been seeing from birth) that her trach would come out around two yrs of age, well that didn't happen and now we are being told that it could be another 5-10 yeras???  So I went to another Dr for a 2nd opinion and she told me that there is only a 5% chance that she will be ablt to get her trach out w/o surg????  What??
Does anyony have any more info??  I didn't know that there was surg for her condition until 3 weeks ago?? 
Any info that you might help wpuld be great.  Thx, Darci
