Hi, Four months ago on Sept 2010 my husband had a horrable accident. While changing my daughter alternator belt on her car the jack slipped. He surived, but is now not responsive to command. He opens his eyes and I believe can hear me. .His treach was put on because they ask me if I wanted it on to prevent a risk of infection. He had a tube down his mouth and noise in ICU. My husband only has a mask over his treach for mositure . Is it possiably to have him go without a trach. I am worried about the infections .. Oh I forgot to mention three week after the accident they did try a vent and he acceppted it. the day after that they tried capping it and he asperated. I was not in the room.
