Living with a laryngectomy

[Doug Frazier]

I searched the forums and couldn’t find anything on this topic

I am considering getting one.

It sounds like it is better than a trach but I would like to hear from anyone that has had one or was a caregiver for someone who did.

Worth doing?

Pros and cons?

Thanks

Doug

people do it together with trach, key benefit:

-less suctioning (qol for pal n cal)
-remove aspiration risk, keep drinkin even in late stage, eatin until u lose all swallowing capability

S: Thanks for the feedback! Just what I needed to hear.
