... The area could be operated on with an LTP, but there is no guarantee that would get the trach out and in fact would likely leave her lungs more open to aspiration. That can lead to lung disease. Right now her lungs look okay, not worse than in the past but not perfect. Her tonsils were huge ...
Thursday next week I will be undergoing surgery because my tonsils are huge. For the past two months I had some sort of sore throat but my tonsils didn't feel achy or anything so I went to the doc on Monday and he immediately sent me to the hospital. So while I will be boring myself to dementia ...

And then about 10 years ago I ...
... came to a head (ha! Alan's head!) before we could get there. We will be keeping that appointment, because... - Alan's tonsils are about as big as a kid's can get and will need to come out at some point.
