Vocal cord testing

Aydens next test to pass, is to make shure his vocal cords are moving properly & that hes protecting his airway when he eats & drinks.They will put a camera down his nose & into his mouth to look from above to see that when he breathes his vocal cords are moving normally.If they are not it would block off his airway without the trach in.They will also feed him something & have him drink & see where it goes,hopefully all down his esophagus,nothing into his airway.He absolutely hates when they put things in his nose,so hes probably going to freak,but one year ago he did it with out crying,so hopefully it will be the same outcome. Today he was watching Ava on the couch for me for a second & he told her "be careful,so you don't fall off & bump your head & we have too call an ambulance & then you get a present".It was so funny!,I couldnt believie he said that,I guess he asociates ambulances with presents! He had a great time at his party,he asked me today what my favorite part was & he said his was"opening my present & I was so excited seeing what it is",huge cheese smile!!! My precious little munchkin! .Love,Angie
