My Surgery - Noelley (:

I was born with a growth on my vocal chords. Once or twice a year I have to have surgery.

When I was only 15 months old, my mom found out that have R.R.P.

I had my frist surgery, when I was 16 months old.

Basically, "R.R.P" is little tumors on my vocal chords. They put me to sleep and put a camera down my thorat and laser my tumors off. The good thing is every surgery is mostly 20 or 30 minutes long and my voice always changes. I like that. So far I have had 15 surgeries and until this day I'm still scared to go have surgery. R.R.P means is recurrent respiratory papillomatosis.

My last surgery was Jan.23, 2012 and my docter tells me everytime I go that my throat is getting better and I'm getting bigger.

This might seem like a big deal for me to go through, but I'm already used to it. I'm happy my mom found this out when I was little because if she didn't, my throat tumors will close up my throat and I wouldn't be able to breathe

I could also get cancer easy. So I have to make sure, I have these surgeries.
