I just got back from two days at the VA hospital.
Good news is, I don't have throat cancer. Less than good news is they couldn't find a cause for my problem. About 15 years ago I started having difficulty swallowing food. And, in recent years my voice has weakened and I can't talk for extended periods of time or it just fades away. To most folks that's real good news. But, I used to be a reader at church and can't do that anymore. Same with my writers group. They used to ask me to read their new works but I have to give that up. Can't swallow, throat hurts, can't talk well at all anymore. Four doctors and batteries of tests show, "nothing wrong, no problem". Got news for the docs, there is a problem and something is wrong. Oh,well.
