OMG! Please pray for me UPDATE 8/22 more surgery

[Barbara]

Sitting here with tears in my eyes. Happy tears! It is so good to find a doctor who does not only see the "mechanical" problems but also the soul of the patient who is damned scared.

Thanks Karen for bringing us the latest good and hopeful update.

Sending much love, many hugs and, of course, prayers & healing thoughts are continuing.

What a relief! I'm so glad that things will get better. Better and better.

I had a long conversation with K9 Karen today, and she saw the eye doctor today as well. She is seeing somewhat better now. The doc, though, is worried that a new tear in imminent, and said she has several blood clots on the back of the eye. He did one laser treatment today, and she thinks that's helping, though it is quite painful.

So more prayers, please, the prospect of surgery is daunting, and there's still a 50% chance she'll go blind, so we're hoping that won't be the case!

*chants* no new tear. no more surgeries */end chant*

[Catty1]

Hi Everybody and again, thanks for the hugs and prayers!

Saw my regular eye surgeon yesterday. No new tears. My vision improved reading the eye chart. Most of the white veil is gone, but there are a gazillion black dots of all sizes. In fact, I keep smacking myself thinking it's a bug on me! Or bugs on the floor etc. I'm seeing the computer OK, not great, but I have a problem finding the cursor. Anything white is difficult. I have a standing doc appt for a while. He's doing everything he can to save my sight. oh well, I had a great 2 1/2 months of great sight when I had my cataract out. I'm grateful for that.

Thanks for the phone calls. I know I yakked away but I was lonely and bored!

[Karen]

Yay, thanks for posting so we know things are as okay as they can be!

[chocolatepuppy]

Keep getting better Karen.

[Medusa]

Better and better, Karen. Keep the faythe.
