My first excursion took a lot out of me. I saw my postgraduate supervisor and the student services people, all of whom were very understanding once I wrote down that I could not speak. My supervisor said I should go home and rest, which I gladly did. I am surprised at how exhausted I was after such a short venture. The light stung my eyes and I found everything much more tiring than usual.
Later, I accidentally spoke because I was not paying attention; just a couple of words about food. All that came out was a hissing noise rather than anything recognizable as a voice. I hope that this does not mean anything, and that I am still healing. It is amazing how much concentration it takes to write things down rather than try to talk.
The coughing issue has not subsided as of yet. I am unsure of what to do about that.
I think I will have to rest up for a couple more days before I try to do anything else.
