WE PLAYED THE WAITING GAME AND GOT A TRACH. MY DAUGHTER IS 2 1/2 AND YOU CAN SEE A BIG DIFFERENCE. HOWEVER WE HAE BEEN TOLD THAT HER LOWER JAW MAY NOT CATCH UP ALL THE WAY BUT THEY WILL WAIT TO DO SURGERY TIL SHE IS 18YRS OLD AND DONE GROWING. IF YOU WANT TO SEE PICTURES I WILL GIVE YOU INFO TO LOOK AT HER SIGHT.
