Expect all kind of wierd stuff to occur from radiation and chemo side effects.. From throat swelling due to lymph nodes not being able to drain properly (Bull Frog Throat), changes in Vocal ability and tone, inability to swallow properly, and many other things and some indignities. But , all the wierd side effects, are just minor compared to still having the Cancer to fight. I never could sing, but I could go to church and make a joyful noise. Now I make a noise worse than before but I am still Joyful.
