I got the results yesterday, and it is not good. The cancer is back. Next step is a C.A.T. scan to see if it has spread. If it has, all bets are off. If not, I have to choose among three options:
1 Total removal of voice box. No voice at all.
2 Partial removal. That would mean being left with a raspy voice.
2 Removal of just the cancer by laser or scalpel. That would mean a raspy voice and the chance of the cancer coming back.
Life sucks sometimes.
