01 Aug 11 - 10:07 AM (#3199679) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: Big Mick Exciting story, not just for our Skippah, but for all singers. Thanks for sharing it. Now can they do anything for wrinkled, old arses? I'll get me aul cap and wellies....... Mick |
01 Aug 11 - 10:18 AM (#3199686) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: Rapparee Give him is voice back and he'll probably run for office. Not that that's a bad thing...for Kendall. The story says it's "tunable" -- Kendall could turn out to be a soprano. |

01 Aug 11 - 10:49 AM (#3199713) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: Charley Noble Excellent article. I also could not help but be intrigued by this paragraph: "In a paper published earlier this year, researchers tested the new injectable gel on dogs' vocal folds. On high-speed video, their vocal folds vibrated normally, with no safety problems." This has potential for the continuing story of the shaggy dog who goes into the bar and... Charley Noble |
01 Aug 11 - 10:56 AM (#3199717) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: Bonnie Shaljean WOW. That's fantastic. It's turning out to be a good day today - |
01 Aug 11 - 10:57 AM (#3199719) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: Jack the Sailor "shaggy dog who goes into the bar and..." The dog says to the doctor, "Will I be able to sing after the operation." The Doctor says "Of course!" The dog says "Good, because I always wanted to be able to sing." Excellent article kendall. It reminds me of your story. Who is that handsome man being examined in the picture? |
01 Aug 11 - 11:12 AM (#3199730) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: Micca Good news Kendall, Thanks for putting up the link (Us Science types like that kind of stuff) JtS and what song will the dog sing? Why Kendalls, "Theres a 5$ fine for whining" |
01 Aug 11 - 11:17 AM (#3199733) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: SINSULL Great article but somebody should shoot the photographer. Both you and the doctor look equally old and decrepit. I don't know how this is going to go over with the Groupies, Captain... |
01 Aug 11 - 11:31 AM (#3199745) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: maeve Thanks for the link, Kendall. I'm closely following your journey. |
01 Aug 11 - 11:36 AM (#3199748) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: GUEST,BBP at work Kendall, all fingers at Gainsborough Folk Club are crossed for a good result on this. Can't wait to hear Jacqui moaning that she can't get a word in edgeways! Deirdre |
01 Aug 11 - 11:41 AM (#3199753) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: Nancy King "Old and decrepit"??? Surely not! How about "Mature and distinguished" .... or something like that. In any case, I'm keeping fingers and toes crossed! What's the timeline on the treatment? |
01 Aug 11 - 11:43 AM (#3199754) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: Lonesome EJ I see the Doctor worked with Steven Tyler in the past. I wonder if this means the Captain will be doing Back in the Saddle Again when the work is complete? ;>) Great news, Kendall, and we are all in your corner on this one! |
01 Aug 11 - 12:06 PM (#3199773) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: AllisonA(Animaterra) Wow! Wonderful article, wonderful news! |
01 Aug 11 - 12:10 PM (#3199776) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: Crowhugger Incredible news, it would be soooo amazing to have your voice back! Say, Kendall, are you in the test group, or rather wait for others to see if there are unforeseen problems that didn't occur with the dogs? |
01 Aug 11 - 12:40 PM (#3199799) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: Big Ballad Singer Absolutely amazing... I LOVE it when things that used to be in the domain of fantasy and science-fiction novels are now becoming realities. Kendall, I wish you all the best, and I will be praying that you not only get your voice back, but become a symbol of hope for anyone who has met struggles with dignity. I can't imagine what I would do if I lost my voice... being able to speak and sing are foundational to who I am as a person and as a performer. My fervent prayer is that you will not only return, but flourish. |
01 Aug 11 - 12:44 PM (#3199800) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: kendall I understood Doctor Zeitels to say that I am scheduled for the first trials. I told him that my insurance company probably won't pay for this because it is experimental. He said "We are going to do it anyway." |
01 Aug 11 - 12:54 PM (#3199804) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: Crowhugger Wow, that will be some truly remarkable history in the making. Looking forward to the next chapter! |

01 Aug 11 - 03:16 PM (#3199924) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: Roger in Baltimore Kendall, May the force be with you. My only worry is that we may have to put up with you "making up for lost time" by telling us everything you haven't gotten across the din since your voice went South. In reality, we will gladly put up with it. Roger in Baltimore |
01 Aug 11 - 03:43 PM (#3199943) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: GUEST,Grace Kraemer Good luck Kendall. It sounds like you are in good hands. I'd like to share the article with my son who aspires to be a bioengineer. He will be a senior in high school and will be applying to colleges with bio-physics and bio-engineering programs. Although exposed to traditional music his entire life he has never caught the bug. Oh well. Take care. Grace |
01 Aug 11 - 04:19 PM (#3199972) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: Sandy Mc Lean Great news! Wishes for all the best of luck with it! |
01 Aug 11 - 05:33 PM (#3200059) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: Genie Kendall, it's great news that you're scheduled for the first trials (that is, if you WANT to be among the first guinea pigs). (Let's hope they give you the right type of gel, so you don't end up sounding like a Dachshund or St. Bernard.) It's wonderful that the doc says they'll 'do' you even though you don't have insurance, too. I hope everything comes out -- er, goes IN -- OK. Genie |
01 Aug 11 - 05:56 PM (#3200083) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: gnu SINS... "Both you and the doctor look equally old and decrepit." Well, YOU ever shove one them things up someone's nose or had one shoved up yer nose? I have had that rigginfriggin shoved up my nose and down my gullet what seemed like far enough to look out the other end FAR too many times and I'll bet a pic of me at that point wouldna be the best. But I thought the old salt looked fine. BTW... I am clear and free for six months as of last Monday. AND, I didn't gag when she shoved the scope in so I AM gonna be okay. Never hold a high note again but that's small potatoes. |

02 Aug 11 - 10:25 AM (#3200110) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: jacqui.c Mark - yes, he will be a guinea pig but he was one of the early patients for last year's procedure and that worked out very well. Right now Kendall is looking for anything that will give him more voice. |

04 Aug 11 - 11:40 AM (#3201661) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: kendall I just don't want to sound like Julie Andrews. Some years ago a large woolen mill complex in Germany went under and a world famous dog breeder bought the whole works. He bred, trained and sold a special breed of hunting dog, and his business became so successful that it even made the headlines in the local newspaper. It read: THE MILLS ARE ALIVE WITH THE HOUNDS OF MUNICH. |

Hey, maybe they could throw in a couple of other renewed body parts just as compensation for all the press they're getting. Candidate suggestions are invited from the reading public. Hair, maybe? |

04 Aug 11 - 06:43 PM (#3201990) Subject: RE: Kendall's new hope From: BrooklynJay Today in the five o'clock hour of our local ABC Eyewitness News, there was a story about Dr. Zeitels and the work he's doing, particularly mentioning his treatment of Tom Hamilton (of Aerosmith) who had tongue and throat cancer. Absolutely fascinating. And extremely encouraging. Jay |
