We have a family reunion in Mid October. The surgeon has agreed to schedule surgery for October 23. Now that he has had a good look inside Charles' throat he thinks a laryngectomy is needed instead of a supraglottic laryngectomy. Bummer. Charles is handling the re-scheduling of the surgery much better than I am. I'll start taking videos.
