Aye aye..

For the first time since I started the blog I have to have a proofreader, thanks P :) If you are wondering why I didn't post yesterday it was because at my regular eye check on Thursday last week it was discovered that the trabeculectomy I had on my right eye over ten years ago had developed a leak, the worry being infection getting behind the eye equals big problems. Anywho the result was immediate surgery, 30 stitches in the eyeball, I know right eeeew! The thing is until the stitches dissolve, roughly seven days, I can't see all that well, hence the proofreading. Didn't want you to worry, all is good I just have to call upon reserves of patience, very low :) and ride it out. Will see you when I can see you :) Take care and stay safe..

    #2 ... LOL. Sorry, but your first words just so match mine.
    Yes. I should get my eyes checked. Oh.My.Goodness. This sounds... glad you got help!!!
    Maybe, to cheer you up: My "lille" Bro needed 3 stiches on his bitten tongue. Doc asked if he wanted one against the pain (would´ve made 4). He was 8? And he said, "no, sew it like that".

    Get well soon- 30, oh, my.
    To P. And you, of course. Miss you.

  29. My thoughts are with you, and wishing you a speedy recovery. The past couple weeks have been tough ones for our household with regard to eye issues. I have a viral infection that came out of nowhere. Very odd, but fortunately, it looks like I'll make a full recovery. My granddaughter was struck in the eye with a toy and spent the night in the hospital, and practically daily trips to the ophthalmologist after that. Fortunately, she's recovering too. Sounds like we can all recover together!
