Successful Surgery For Original BREAKER Vocalist - April 16, 2008 |
Original BREAKER singer Jim Hamar is home recovering from
successful surgery undergone on Tuesday, April 15. Doctors
last week diagnosed Hamar with 'vocal cord fold polyps' and
immediately scheduled surgery. Hamar was forced to
cancel his special reunion performances with BREAKER this summer at
the Bang Your Head festival in Balingen, Germany. With Hamar's
support and backing, current BREAKER vocalist Greg Wagner will
replace him and all performances will go on as scheduled.
The recovery and rehabilitation time will extend through the entire
summer.
"Dr Mournay said the surgery was a complete success, and I have
three pages of instructions to follow to begin my recovery", says
Hamar who had the operation done in a Cleveland-area hospital.
"No real pain though. I have a discomfort that feels like I
have something caught in my throat, but I can deal with it.
Time to turn the page and start the long road back!"
Once back to full health, Hamar would like to do
something special for BREAKER fans together with the band to make-up
for the canceled reunion. He also plans to begin recording with
NIGHTCRAWLER.
