Today Anchor Sheinelle Jones Undergoing Vocal Surgery
On Thursday, the 3rd Hour of Today show anchor, 41, announced she will be undergoing vocal surgery on Monday — an hour-long procedure that will require a six-week recovery process and will leave her voiceless for two weeks.
“Within the last month or two, I get anxiety when I have to track a story because I don’t know if I’m going to get a sound,” she adds. “And there’s some days where it’s just better than others for whatever reason. It almost feels like I start the morning with a tank full of gas and by the end of the morning it’s like I’m out. It’s empty. I look at my scripts sometimes and I call them word mountains.
“I went to an ENT and they did a scope of my throat,” she continues. “And sure enough, there was this polyp on my vocal cord. She gave me a steroid and then I started going to a vocal therapist a couple of times a week I did all the vocal therapy, went back and it was gone. It had gone away or at least gone down. I thought I was kind of able to keep it at bay.”
“It kind of hit me that we’re in such a go mode all the time, especially with kids and you have a busy career, that you very rarely stop to just take care of yourself,” Jones says. “And part of me feels like it’s a good Lord’s way of kind of making me sit still. Because I have to be honest, I can’t remember the last time I didn’t talk.”
