Just had a Total laryngectomy. Have been very positive. However radiotherapy was not so pleasant. I since had to have stoma enlarged which is very painful for stoma. I am very depressed and it is not the cancer issue, I cant place it. I am still unable to eat or drink after 4 months due to the severity of radiation. Inspired by you as many are by me. But lately feel very helpless and anxious. Have you any advise for me. I just thank God everyday for the second chance. I have provox prothesssis
Thank you for this. My mom is about to have her voice box removed and we are trying to decide what method if speech to choose for her. I can't wait to show her your video, you are an inspriation.
Mike I came across your YouTube video And what a answered prayer I have liver cancer that is Inoperable Can't cut it out and no transplant just treatment to keep tumor down and Prayer 4 months later it got in my lymp noms My neck on right side is hard and painful at Times and inside of throat at base of tongue Is other mass I live in nj and drive to NYC one hour drive There and back I love you brother and your face is always In my prayers keep running the race which Is your heavenly calling
regular he is talking with a whole in his throat my uncle is the same my uncle used the same artificial larnyx he talks through a TEP provox he is producing air through esophogus my uncle pushes on his little button to talk
Almost forgot! Mike has probably already heard this, but there are classes that teach people how to swim again after a laryngectomy. There are some videos here on YouTube showing it. =)
I would love to see a motivational/inspirational website for Mike. I am in school right now studying to become a Rehabilitation Counselor. I am inspired and very grateful to Mike for sharing his story and I learned so much from these two videos to help me with a Case Study and disability paper. As a Christian I am humbled by your willingness to share! God Bless!
