He still has a scratchy throat, but last night was the first night he was went on in months where he could actually breath! The vet said he had never seen anything like that before, but that it probably isn't that uncommon, and that he will watch for this more from now on because it sounds so similar to a reverse sneeze or trachea, that most people probably don't get it checked out. Hopefully Romeo will continue to improve and be back to normal!!!
Way to go, Romeo...!!!

So happy for you, Mom...
