This is Episode 12 for April 11th, 2021, An Exciting Update on John

Since our son John was about 6 months old he's always had a trach tube. At his peak of medical requirements, he needed a ventilator, oxygen concentrator, and additional oxygen canisters. Over the years he has slowly been able to lessen the load on equipment, and finally, on March 23rd of this year he is "Trach Free". After a scope procedure indicated no obstructions present he was able to be admitted to the PICU and have his trach tube removed. After staying the night for observation he was able to leave. It's been a little over two weeks and he's still doing great. We want to thank all of our friends and family for their support over the years.
