@maidenmn I am just across the creek in Wisconsin.
They don't really know yet how they will handle the stent. I had tracheal cancer.
I will tell you that the stent is no picnic - it comes with its own set of health issues.

@heart4wi Howdy, Neighboreeno! Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that about your cancer! I'm aware that the stent comes with a huge infection and possible rejection risk, as well as a bunch of other horrible things. Hopefully they can figure it out soon for you, so you can get it out and they can do a more permanent repair.
