Here's the Skinny
Okay, Nate and I just got back from Ohio today. The doc scoped his throat, and the verdict is...... his throat went back to the way it was before the surgery in January. So, he will have to undergo another major surgery. They will cut out the part of his airway that is too small, sew everything back up and take the trach out while they are at it. They have to put a breathing tube from his nose down his airway for the first week. So he won't fight it (he is a fighter) he will be sudated for that time. After that, a couple of weeks in the hospital. So 3 weeks at least, maybe a month. The surgery will be done maybe a month from now. Hopefully sometime in May.

Thanks for the update. What a bummer though. Maybe we will have to road trip out to Ohio to see you guys. Will you all be able to come?
Good Luck and we will keep nathan in our prayers!
Steve will only be there for part of the time. For the surgery for sure. We think Katie will be happier at home with Grandma and Grandpa. I'll post the dates as soon as I know.
