I never thought Nicky might be able to speak so it came a shock to me when our ENT Surgon told us that one day nicky could have a completly normal voice and vocalcord palsy does not stop people from talking. Wow, them news have blown my mind.
On the other hand it was mentioned that one of her vocalcords could be "tied back" but it would mean damaging the cord and changing her voice but also means having being decannulated.
So now i am a bit torn, mess up her voice and being able to go swimming, paddling in the backgarden, bathing be easier, playing in the sand or with play-doe or waiting for maybe an other 4 to 5 years and leaving the vocalcords intact.
What would you do??
Peace, Lucy
