She recently completed a series of seven operations on her larynx to restore her speech.<\/p>\n<p>When she was 17 years old she was in a severe automobile accident in which she was thrown forwards and hit her throat on the dashboard. She also broke her neck in four places.<\/p>\n<p>Since that time her voice has been extremely weak and she&#8217;s had to deal with it \u2013 until she met Sid M. Khosla, MD, an Ear, Nose and Throat Specialist at University Hospital. He has been working on this type of surgery for several years and is using his background in engineering to perfect it. Prior to turning to medicine he studied engineering at MIT. Since then he&#8217;s teamed with another University of Cincinnati professor and they have used the technology of aerospace engineering and applied the theories of wind and how it affects a jet engine to how wind affects the ability to speak.<\/p>\n<p>Christian heard of Dr. Khosla one day when she was shopping and woman heard her talking and handed her a card with his name and phone number on it. She suggested Christian call him. &#8220;I sure wish I could remember what she looked like and knew who she is,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I like to call it my little \u2018Miracle Card'&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>She and her husband have been married 33 years and when asked how he likes her ability to talk she said, &#8220;he thinks it&#8217;s great, although he used to joke that he had the perfect wife, one that can&#8217;t talk&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Khosla says her voice will only get better over time.<\/p>\n<p>Read More: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.19actionnews.com\/story\/17406511\/after-30-years-of-not-being-able-to-speak-one-woman-finds-her-voice\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.19actionnews.com\/story\/17406511\/after-30-years-of-not-being-able-to-speak-one-woman-finds-her-voice<\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">~\u2020~<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">Posted by Donna Calvin ~ Monday, April 16, 2012<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">~\u2020~<\/p>\n<p><strong>Please share this Watchwoman post on your Facebook page, Linkedin, Google+1, Twitter to all your friends, Please click \u201cLike\u201d, Share, and Leave Comments.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Visit Word Warriorette, a free Yahoo Group, and subscribe to be notified (one email a day) of new posts on Watchwoman.<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/groups.yahoo.com\/group\/WordWarriorette\/\">http:\/\/groups.yahoo.com\/group\/WordWarriorette\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">~\u2020~<\/p>\n<h6><em>DISCLAIMER: Beliefnet puts paid advertisements on \u201cWatchwoman on the Wall\u201d blog site including some that would never be approved of by the King James Bible, Pastor Ernie Sanders of Doers of the Word Church, What\u2019s Right-What\u2019s Left Radio Ministry, the Voice of the Christian Resistance, Geauga County Right to Life and Donna Calvin.\u00a0 We at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wrwl.org\/\">www.WRWL.org<\/a> do not condone, endorse, adhere to, practice or believe in many of the topics and some of what other bloggers promote or their religions at Beliefnet.\u00a0 However, Mrs. Calvin has no control of what Beliefnet displays.\u00a0\u00a0 She blogs at Beliefnet because she is in the missionary field ministering to true believers posting articles and commentaries informing pro-life, conservative Christians of recent anti-Christian acts and hostile legislation to God\u2019s Agenda and His Will for the world.\u00a0 Hopefully, unbelievers will read these along with the salvation message of Jesus Christ as written in the Gospel of John, Chapter 3, according to the King James Bible, and be saved.\u00a0 A missionary must go into the unbelievers\u2019 territory to reach them.\u00a0 Her mission is to Proclaim Warning to a Nation that has forgotten their Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the only Truth, the Life, and the only Way to the One God the Father.<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Read more: <a href=\"..\/?p=4928\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/watchwomanonthewall\/?p=4928<\/a><\/em><\/h6>\n<p align=\"center\">~\u2020~<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[Psalms 118:24]\u00a0 This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Watchwoman: What a wonderful thing to read how this wonderful restoration of a woman&#8217;s voice happened and yet it seems to have happened so mysteriously and by a chance meeting!\u00a0 God controls all things, even chance meetings!\u00a0 I don\u2019t know if this woman is a Christian, if she prayed for a healing, or not???

I knew then I was going to be involved in a war and that I would have to be in Jesus Christ's Army. Even then, I knew the United States of America would cease to exist without the vast majority of its citizens voluntarily submitting to the Perfect and Good Laws of the Holy Bible. I am a woman who loves the Lord Jesus Christ. I am tired of seeing our LORD denigrated from the school house to the White House.
