I start chemo tomorrow. Kinda nervous about it. Mostly nervous of the unknown, like most of the time when I do something new. Not knowing how I will feel or what side effect I will experience. They will also be putting me into menopause while I am on chemo... a "chemical menopause" in hopes to preserve my ability to have a baby in a few years if I chose to. I can't wait to have menopause symptoms like hot flashes... NOT!
I've been thinking about how all this will affect my singing voice. Will my range drop lower? Will I lose my high notes? It's seems silly to think about especially since I am not a trained singer, it's just something I love to do. I think about it when I hear Glitter and Be Gay during Candide since I currently have the notes to sing that song and I wonder if I will after all this is done or if I will become a mezzo or an alto. Not that I will complain about being a mezzo or an alto... those roles are fun, but I'm just so use to singing soprano.
Anyways, enough of the nervous ramblings about my voice.
Hugs. Let me know if you need anything tonight.
ReplyDeleteHow did it go? I'm here if you want to talk or need some help!
ReplyDeleteSharon Kaye recovered from cancer, and I don't think her voice suffered from the experience at all. Just keep vocalizing...you've got such a great instrument. I'm confident your voice will be just as gorgeous, if not more so, in a year from now. XOXOX

ReplyDeleteI couldn't edit, my comment after I posted it. I just wanted to say, that it isn't silly for you to care about how this will effect your voice. Your voice is something you love about yourself. I know that whatever happens your beautiful voice will shine through.
