Hi, Steve,

There is a Doctor on this site who is a laryngectomee and he continues to lecture at medical centers and medical schools. If you put in "dribrook" in the search box, you can read some of his posts and even contact him through Private Message. He is very inspirational and may be a source of support for you.

Please investigate all possibilities for your care and make sure there is science to back up what you choose to do. No one was ever cured by alternative methods. If those methods were so successful, every arm of medicine would be promoting and recommending them to everyone. The cancer research community shares info, cures, and breakthroughs throughout the world.

I wish you well in your treatment no matter which course you choose. You have a tough road ahead but you have a lot of people here who will cheer you on. Take care.

Anita
