Doc said it will be a bitch, but the last 6 people they did this to all lived and they were all older than me and in poor shape. The surgical team up there thinks I’m the best candidate to survive this.

August 25th is the 10 hour surgery. They said that after they cut open the side of my throat and remove the cancery stuff, they will use a 5” x 5” square of flesh off of my right forearm to make a new Epiglottis. They said I will stay in a sleep for about 5 days in intensive care and then progress to the regular care. Eventually 2 months of rehab to learn to speak and eat...

Wish me luck,...

I like this choice. I am sure it wasnt easy to make though! We all got your back, no matter what. I wont let you forget if you guys need or want anything at all, tell us.
