BS: Firecat is missing her voice!

It is VERY quiet at our house! Firecat came home from college yesterday minus her voice and doing a reasonable impression of a hamster.

If you have seen it wandering anywhere or can offer any suggestions for her getting it back please let us know.

(At the moment she is drinking lots of honey and lemon, sleeping a lot and taking asprin/paracetamol.)

Get better soon Sweetheart :-)

Losing one's voice is not always so funny.

Thanks people! I don't like this!! I'm missing Theatre Studies!!!!!!!

Actually, I was in the dinner queue at college on Wednesday and my best mate had to order my food for me!! It'd better come back!!!! Mind you, I'm also watching a LOT of Blackadder, but that does nothing for my throat cos I keep giggling (or at least trying to)!

Any chance at all of this being infectious, if so could you please send her to my house to infect Wombat and the Son and hairy(when I'm out) I might get a bit of peace and quite!
Try sipping Whisky, does nothing for it but by God it makes you feel good!

From: Tig

She went to the docs tonight and he has FORBIDDEN her to try to speak for at least the weekend!!!!!!

She's on antibugotics to try and take down the swollen hamsters - probably stuffed as suggested Micca - but he says she'll just have to wait until it comes back and there's nothing she can do to hurry it.

At the moment she is frantically writing notes to indicate how P***** off she is. However he didn't say anything about her typing in Mudchat :-). She also wants to know, if she is not allowed to talk, how will she know if her voice comes back?

Not known her as quiet since she started to talk.

If I find an extra voice, I'll email it to you. OK?

(first time back to the 'cat in a while and I post THIS? I must be gettin' old...)

Keep smiling despite the loss of voice!! I'm sure it's where you last saw it!

Tig,if she's anything like Kevin,the voice won't stay lost for long.(Kev tends to talk more when he's lost his voice just telling us he's lost it!)

Love and hugs Firecat,keep warm and lubricated(the voice that is!!)

p.s.Keep watching the post.

Hi Firecat! ... I don't know if this will help, but it might give you a smile. Why don't you try to establish a rule in your home, something like this: if YOU can't talk, then no one else can talk to you either! That way, at least you'll get some peace and quiet! CHEERS, Bob

From: Tig

She is getting VERY fed up - which I can understand. The fact that the doc could give her no clues as to when it may return didn't help.

If anyone has suffered severe laryngitis and has any suggestions for help they would be appreciated - and not just by FC, but also her fustrated mother (her writing is appaling to try and read !)

Hang on in there FC, you don't want to force your voice or you will do more harm than good.

Lots of big hugs and butterflies coming from your adopted sister here in London. Hope to see you soon

"and doing a reasonable impression of a hamster."

Hang on, hang on... Small, furry, adorable... Did you want to get 'er back after the next FATE (when, I hope, you are going to finally introduce us properly?!)??

Hang on, hang on... Hamsters? Aren't they the small, furry, adorable, savage little bastards that pretty much fight to the death... Did you want to get *me* back after the next FATE (or were you going to finally introduce us properly?!)??

Hugs (which do wonders in the cure of lost voices (better than whisky), believe me - would I lie to you?! :) )

Have her discuss the problem with Kendall, Tig. He can give her lessons in being "fed up". Hang in there, girl. It will come back wagging its tail behind it.

Firecat, I think your writings fine! As for your voice, I have faith that it will come back, better than ever! Kind of like Lance Armstrong (great man)!
Your production will go well to!
In the mean time, have another hug!!

Thanks everyone. I'm off college for until at least Friday. Mum told me earlier that if it's not back by Monday, I'll have to take it back to the doctor's.

I think there is a VERY small whisper starting to return. But not enough for a MEEP yet!

Honest, it WILL come back eventually Sweetheart - then you can take the teasing out on your dad!!!

Has it come back or not, do let us know we are desperate for news about the missing voice.Have you circulated a description of it, I found one and could not trace its owner do you think it might be yours?
Hope you get well soon,

If it's got a Yorkshire accent, and varies between fairly high and fairly deep, and sings mezzo-soprano at any given opportunity (especialy to the radio!), it might well be! Can I have it back please?

BTW where did you find it?

I think it is starting to return!!!!

Not yet enough to nag her mother but there are definately tiny sounds issuing from her mouth - I feel there may be more volume available but that she is scared to try it out :-( - just in case it goes again!!!
