Hunter has a speech valve now which allows the air to go up through his vocal cords to make sound, instead of just exhaling through the trach. Since having the trach we haven't been able to hear his voice, so this has been so fun to finally hear him! It's still not his full voice and it's not all the time because the air still has to go around the trach tube which doesn't leave a lot of space for the air to go around but it's a fun preview of what's in store for when the trach tube comes out! It melts my heart to Hunter giggle...
Tears come when I hear his voice once again.
