Yeah I had trouble with chord changes for a while, but eventually it becomes pretty fluent, second nature. My voice is the same, but I also haven't started radiation yet, so it might very well end up a little different. Hopefully not, but there could be worse things than a changed voice. I used to be a pretty shy guy, but my freshman year of high school I played piano and sang in front of a full auditorium, around 1,000+ people. I was the only person at the talent show to get a standing ovation, it was a very humbling situation and certainly helped me get out that shy phase.

I'm sure I can look up some PT exercises online, it would probably be more convenient as I could go at my own pace according to what my body tells me. I don't know if it's from the swelling in my neck or not, but my left shoulder blade seems to stick out a little bit more than my right one now. I hope that goes back to normal.

Thank you! He is currently sleeping at my feet. He's a very loyal friend and I could never ask for more in a pet than what he provides to me. I brush him for a good 20 minutes a couple times a week, so his coat is very well cared for.
