Q, you were a drill Sergeant ?? Best Wishes In a message dated 9/28/2010 5:26:03 P.M. Central Daylight Time, [email protected] writes:
I am a C2-3 incomplete who was on a ventilator for about four months. I didn't have any problem with paralysis of my vocal chords, but my diaphragm doesn't permit me to speak nearly as loudly as before. I cannot even mimic some of my older marching cadences I used to use when I was a drill sergeant. I've also noticed that my voice is considerably more raspy than it was prior to injury. I almost sound like I am a smoker at times. I guess that's just part of post SCI for me. Q
