Jordan Burnett
I have a child with a tracheostomy. His name is Jordan Burnett. He is 1year 11months. His date of birth is 23/09/00 and he means the world to me. He attends Yorkhill Sick Kids Hospital. Before his trach, he had a nasal tube he had a devil biss humidifier, devil biss suction unit and he has a mr10 breathing monitor. He has had his trach since September 2001. I would like information on any thing to do with his equipment his trachea tube is a size 3.5mm the type is a great ormond street gos trachea tube with extension. He has sherwood suction catheters. Jordan has a sister called Mary Ann she is 9 years old she also has special needs.
Update, November 2003: Hi, would like to send you all an update on my son Jordan Burnett on the 21/10/2003 Jordan got his tracheostomy removed. He is doing OK. He is desaturating at night, but just for seconds then he's going back up again. But, he's doing this 4 to 12 times a night. He has to go back in to hospital in a months time if he is still desaturating. At this time, he will be taken to theatre to see is there is any granulation inside were his trachie was, and this will be removed. If he is still desaturating after this, he will go back to theatre so they can look at his tonsils and adenoids. He also has to go and see a chest doctor, as they thing he could have long-term lung damage. Now, I was wondering if anyone else had any problems like this after trachie was removed. Can you please email me to let me know? All my love & safe (((((((hugs))))))) to you all. Yours fatefully,
