Hey, ladies - I'm asking everyone I know to pray for me - I've been dealing with laryngitis for a week now - my voice went out in the middle of our second service last Sunday (as in COMPLETELY out!!!), and it is finally starting to show some signs of coming back today (Saturday). I have two more services to conduct tomorrow, as well as a major fundraiser, so I really need to be able to speak, lol!!
I've been doing everything I'm supposed to do - drinking lots of hot tea and hot water with lemon and honey, working from home so I can rest my voice and communicating with my leaders, etc. via e-mail...
I'm praying and believing for a 100% restoration of my voice in time for church tomorrow (DH will be grilling chicken and ribs for our fundraiser, and won't be able to help me lead worship, lol!!). Thanks for your prayers!!!
Been there, done that, Puppetmaster. I know how you feel. Will be praying for a speedy recovery.
Tips -
1) Don't whisper (it causes more strain than talking.) 2) Drink warm decaf tea with lemon. 3) Don't use colognes or sprays of any kind til your voice comes back. Nothing aerosol. It affects the voice terribly. 4) Stay very well hydrated. 5) Take shower, stand in the steam a lot. 6) Get a good amount of sleep
Ladies...keep praying!! My voice is almost back, other than the fact that I still cannot sing a note! This would normally not be a huge problem, except that I'm starting a series on worship tomorrow, and I picked 7 SONGS to do - I'm teaching the kids about the correct order of worship, and we're going to practice what we learn as we're learning it...
So I have about 12 hours for my voice to come back 100%, lol!!!
