Roger Daltrey had cancer scare....

The Who legend had pre-cancerous growths removed in 2009.
Roger Daltrey has revealed he had an operation to remove a pre-cancerous growth on his vocal cords in 2009.
Talking to CBS Los Angeles, Daltrey said he was made aware of a problem after his voice "wasn't behaving in the normal way". The Who front man continued - "It was becoming hard work to sing. I just got lucky that somebody put me in touch with Steven Zeitels [Director of the Mass General Voice Center in Massachusetts]. He told me that he didn't like what he saw. He took off what he could from the problem area on my vocal cord. He said it wasn't cancer but it was a pre-cancerous growth and you have to keep an eye on it".
Roger Daltrey added how he struggled with the consequent recovery, claiming "I got depressed after he did the operation, during what I call the Big Silence. That's when I realised what it would be like to not have a voice".
Daltrey - who is a patron of Teenage Cancer Trust and organizes annual concerts for the charity - is now having regular check-ups with Zeitels.
