I had an emergency visit today at my ENT’s office for my ear pain. He confirmed that I do have an ear infection and put me on two different antibiotics. He also examined my throat and told me that my right vocal fold has hemorrhaged. This means that I’m on vocal rest, only able to speak if absolutely necessary, at least until next Wednesday. And, it also means that my recovery just became much harder. I was originally told I’d be hoarse for 2 weeks and have my full voice restored in 4-6 weeks. Now, I am going to be hoarse for 6-12 weeks and may not have my full voice for up to 1 year. I am very discouraged by this news and am asking for prayers for this coming week and for my recovery.
