in Head and Neck Cancer #1

I JUST RECEIVED THIS TODAY in an email from HNCA (Head and Neck Cancer Alliance)

It's a free film you can watch on laryngectomees that overcame their issues and sang concerts.
It's available to stream: Sep 9th - Sep 18th and you can see a trailer video now.
There will also be a Q&A By registering for the screening, you will also be eligible to join an exclusive Q&A zoom session. Join HNCA, Bill Brummel, and his personal physician, Dr. Uttam Sinha. Dr. Sinha, on September 14, 2021, at 1:00 pm Eastern. Hear more about Bill's journey, the inspiration for the film, and ask your questions about life as a cancer survivor, laryngectomee, and the inspiration for the film.

So if you are or you know a laryngectomee or are just interested check this out-link below and I am assuming
anyone can sign up because it did not say otherwise and I am not an official member of HNCA I just get their communications.

    Saw a preview

    Thanks for posting this, Russ.  I saw a story on this on a recent news program--CBS Sunday Morning, 60 Minutes, or one of those.  Incredible.

    I got it too

    Yes, I receive bed it too.!  

    For a while I was attending a great Speak Easy ( Laryngectomee) Support Group. They welcomed me in with open arms!!

    I cooked for the group, and wow, we had big spreads especially at Thanksgiving and Christmas.  It hurt them that I cannot eat, but I let them know that it did not bother me at all. I was there for the great rapport.

    Of course, the pandemic ended our meetings, so sad.

    They were a great group, so much love and Fun in those meetings!!  One of my SLPs came to the Christmas party we had.

    I really miss them!
