abstract="Following laryngectomy patients are usually advised that swimming is no longer possible. Under supervised conditions and using a swimming aid, such as described, a laryngectomee may return to an activity previously considered unavailable, rehabilitation thus being more complete. However, for a laryngectomee to proceed a safe supervised environment is required, and the path to this goal is often long and arduous, but with persistent dedication the Laryngectomy Swimming Club may become a reality bringing rich reward.
