I know I haven't wrote anything in a few weeks, so I decided to get on here and let you all know that we are still alive and kickin'! :)
We haven't had much going on besides keeping our fingers crossed that the cold weather is starting to move out and the warm weather will hang out with us. We've had a pretty crazy winter (as a lot of us have) where we've had some warm days that get into the 60s or 70s and then a day later be back to 20s or 30s with snow. Perfect breeding grounds for colds and flus. Luckily Landon has gotten the less severe of the two. He's had the sniffles and coughs for a few days now, but he seems to be doing a lot better. Just a cough here and there.
We've got a lot coming up in the next week or two. As I've mentioned before, we will be making a trip to Denver starting on the 18th and Landon will have his procedure on the 19th. Keep your fingers crossed and prayers coming that everything goes well and it will be an easy recovery for him.
This week we will be going to see Landon's ENT doctor (Dr. Quinlan) to get the go-ahead for the surgery and to just do a routine checkup. He'll probably want to see what is going on in his throat and if it has changed over the past 5 months. This is when we get to see if what Dr. Yakes is doing in Denver is working or not. The last time Dr. Quinlan took a look he said it was an improvement but we still have a ways to go. So keep your fingers crossed for that. :)
We'll also be going to see a speech therapist on Thursday. This office was recommended to us by Landon's teacher that comes to see him once a week. She said good things about him and his team. They have worked with kids that have trachs and pasy muirs before, so I'm hoping that they can give me a lot of tips on how to work with Landon. We're going on Thursday for an evaluation, so lets hope that they will be able to help. :)
That's all for right now. I will be keeping everyone updated about everything going on, so keep checking back!! Love you all!
