SET BACK

I have had a set back. It's not with my weight loss, I am more tham pleased with that. But it is with my trach tube. On September 25th I had it removed and thought all was going to be fine. Almost 2 months of not having it, I had to go into minor surgery today and have it placed back in. Apparently it was healing from previous surgeries and scar tissue closed, causing it to close my airway and nopt being able to breath well. Doc said that it was a minor setback and that  the process would be just a little longer before complete and total removal of the trach could happen. It was a good sign  , he said that I was able to be without it as long as I was.  I still have my eye on the prize and am not giving up. I haver never backed down from a fight in my life and am not about to start backing down now!!

You will get this thing whipped. Best of luck

I sure hope so. That was one of my main goals for the weight loss. just a minor set back though (I hope).

I'm so sorry you had to have the trach put back in, but it sounds like you have a good outlook on it. You recognize that it's temporary, and that you will be rid of it sooner or later. Keep us updated, and hang in there.
Blessings,
Mary
