I have just had a Laryngectomy and want to be able to sing

[@djslacker5195]

I’m back to singing using my electro larynx after my laryngectomy

[@richardharris3423]

Hi and Thank you so much for the help. I am scheduled to go to Sloan Kettering for a total laryngectomy on the 2nd. I am also an EMT so I am not fazed by body secretions. Nervous, but looking forward to be getting rid of this cancer once and for all. God Bless you. You are a gentleman. Stay well.

I've known Terry for years and remember when his wife came to tell me of his current situation and I prayed so hard for him to pull through. I am SO glad that he did because he is a blessing to everyone who knows him. I am impressed with his fortitude and positive outlook in the face of what, to others, could be perceived as a devastating turn of events.
