Dear doctor: 55 years ago, a baby boy was born with a diaphragmatic hernia. You operated on him and saved his life, but in the process, we were told you'd accidentally paralyzed one of his vocal cords. Twenty-five years later, we learned his vocal cords were both fine -- he'd been born with a webbing over his airway that completely blocked it. When you punched the tube down his throat to help him breathe, you punched a hole in that webbing. He lived for 25 years with only a 30% airway -- but he lived, thanks to you. He had the webbing removed and has been thriving ever since.
