 A Massachusetts man can speak once again after surgeons removed his cancerous voice box and replaced it with a donated one. It's only the third time this type of transplant has been attempted, but it's the first time it was done for a cancer patient. 59-year-old Marty Kettigan says it was very important that his 82-year-old mother gets to hear him speak again. I said no matter what, I'm getting my voice back. No matter what.
