I have lost something that is important to me.....

[SlightlyMadSecretSoundWinner]

my voice

I can whisper in a hoarse voice
I can sometimes talk in a croak
When I try and shout I am silent...

Oh..poor you....although I have to say when dd1 lost her voice it was brilliant...

ARRGH!!!!! that was on your behalf

It really changes the way you parent. Quite refreshing I found.

Least you can always type eh?

This is teh closest I have ever come to completely losing it.

I have been croaky before now - but never shouted to a silence.

It just feels wierd. Not particularly sore, just weird...

K999-

Sorry SS it ir really frustrating to lose your voice, especially when the kids won't listen to you!

Sympathies. Happened to me once and I couldn't even talk in a croak. I would answer the phone and would keep getting "Hello? Hello?".

I will pass. Until then, turn phone off & turn tv on

Indeed, MN is not out the window.

Tis hard. I tried to shout at DTD2 this morning because she left stair gate open.

I tried to shout at another parent tonight to say goodbye.

Nothing happened.

I am just glad I didn't have cause to shout because someone is in real danger.

DP runs a business from home.

He is advertising in paprt this W/E. I will be expected to answer phone....
