I am happy to inform you that my new book "The Laryngectomee Guide” was recently translated into Turkish by Dr. Z. Çiler Tezcaner and his colleagues.
The Guide provides practical information that can assist laryngectomees and their caregivers with medical, dental and psychological issues. It contains information about side effects of radiation and chemotherapy; methods of speaking; airway, stoma, and voice prosthesis care; eating and swallowing; medical, dental and psychological concerns; respiration; anesthesia; and travelling.
The Guide was endorsed by the American Academy of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery and an e book edition is available to their members at no cost through their
website.
I would like to offer the Guide free to all those who can benefit from it in Turkey. It can be downloaded at
here It is also available at my
Blog
I have also attached a copy of it.
The English paperback can be obtained at here
I would be grateful if you can inform your collegues and patients about the availability of the Laryngectomee Guide.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
