A little of this and a little of that...

Day 30

Hello hello, so a few quick updates for you today.

Due to good behavior, Papa is graduating from the trach he has (a relatively bigger one which protects his airway) to a smaller one possibly with some holes so air can hopefully pass through his airway and to his vocal chords so that he can (hopefully) talk!

Also, the doctors did a heart scan on Papa and everything looked clear, so he will be getting his permanent pacemaker sometime in the next couple days. So a little bit of a new trach, and a little bit of a pacemaker and you'll get a brand new Papa Baer! WOO!

The past couple of days have been awfully wearing on the poor guy, but he is still in good spirits. He told us that he isn't ready to give up. We aren't ready either. 

Thanks again for all that you do,

The Baers
