Kendall, So sorry to hear of the malignancy. Let me add my prayers, good thoughts, and visualizations to all the others. I do hope that not only can the cancer be removed and neutralized but your voice will not suffer great or permanent damage.

FWIW, my sister was given a prognosis of MAXIMUM 5 years to live 8 years ago, due to a very agressive, hard-to-treat form of sarcoma. She (an MD herself) has combined diet, spiritual healing, visualization, and homeopathy with seeking out the best in Western medicine (including surgery). I am utterly convinced that it is those 'alternative' healing approaches, coupled with an incredibly strong will to live, that have made the difference.

Oh, and, yes, don't forget to laugh and keep making music, too!
