Voice Banking or Message Banking for Impending Voice loss

New here. Has anyone here ever done Voice Banking or Voice Message Banking? And then been able to get the use of the recordings turned into using your own voice rather than robotic sounding?? Is this technilogy even ready yet? My neurologist is recommending I bank my voice now because it seems I'm heading for loss of the motor function due to radiation fibrosis syndrome. Anyone else have similar impending loss or experienced how to manage this when it does happen or tips for managing?

Also any expertise out there you found at whatever locations you're at? I'm in NC. Survived thru all the maximum chemo and raditation treatments for my late stage tonsil cancer 13 years ago only to deal with what I call "the gift that keeps on giving" even years later.... radiation side effects!!

Thanks for any help - physical info or tips and emotional as well!
