Speech therapy or operation?

My speech therapist has sent me information about the latest method of changing your voice through an operation. It is no longer necessary to cut in the vocal chords, because you voice can be tuned like a guitar by changing the orientation of two tiny bones in your throat.

Today we have discussed this possibility. It is important to take a decision about this soon, because it will have a mayor impact on the speech therapy. If I decide not to have this operation, I will have to work very hard on reaching the right pitch with the voice I have.

We have decided I will ask a number of people for feedback about my voice in pitch and modulation (articulation, melody etcetera).
