Kendall -- I had a friend some years back who was a singer and had nodules removed from her vocal chords. It took a long while (like months, not years) to recover, but eventually she did recover and began to sing again. Her voice was lower than it had been, but she was SINGING. so you might have to learn some new parts, but ...Keep your chin up, pal, and stop looking down THERE. Catspaw was only kidding...
ww -- who may be making light but is also holding you in the Light.
