let me know what your ent says about your chords. i live in nashville and i

made an appt. at the Vanderbilt Vocal Center. they treat lots of musicians.

i want to ask them some questions. the nurse, on the phone, told me to

advice the anesthesiologist that i am a singer and to use the smallest tube

possible. the nurse also said she had never know a singer to have

orthognathic surgery so she didn't know what to tell me. she said the dr

would know more. the only problem is that the appt. to get my surgical

braces on is the 22 of nov. and my appt. with the vocal doctor isn't until

the 15th of dec.
