Trackyotomy that was done wrong
Was suppose to get a tracyotomy to last last 4 months and now has this for life due to improper cutting in the tracia, it is was given for sleep apnea, was suppose to help, it never did. He had to go to 6 different Dr's and the last surgery he was told it is in for the rest of his life. The orginal trac that was put in, was in 1998,the last surgery he had they were going to try and put a regular tube instead of a T-Tube and after his surgery the Dr. told him that a regular tube will not work because wrong from the first surgery. Now he has to live with a T-Tube and have surgery once a year to replace it. Please call or let me know if there is anything we can do about this.--name removed--Savaglio
