An eye on you *uppity date* #32

[Freedom]

Prayers for you from RI!

Wonder if you can decorate eye patches? An elf, a reindeer, a lighted tree, a snow fall / blizzard, an Autumn leaf, . . . . . .

Karen,

I'm so sorry you have to go through this. It plain sucks getting older. I feel like my body is a used car, all sorts of junk failing on it. Last night I noticed my left knee was "clicking" as I walked.

I went to a specialist for my "floaters" and they told me it was nothing to worry about. They are a pain in the arse. Especially when you're trying to read a book through the little "windows" in my glasses. *sigh* The things we go through.

You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

and hugs from

Donna and the fur crew

Prayers for a quick and easy surgery with speedy healing!

...and the sequined eye patch would be a hoot!

a quick surgery & complete recovery. (((Hugs))) Liz.

You were trying to keep this humourous, and hope this helps:



And here's one like Karen mentioned:


Also...a bumper sticker you can order from Cafepress.com if you like Mac Computers:

OK weird but I experienced a "flasher" (not the kind in a raincoat) last night. At first it felt like I had looked directly at a lightbulb, then this flickering starting in the peripheral vision of my left eye. It was a lined pattern and I could see yellow and purple in it. It would have been kinda cool and psychedelic if it hadn't been so frightening! I was looking up the number of the "cybernurse" for my insurance company when it suddenly stopped. It felt as though I had something in my eye for a while, then . . . nothing.

Is THAT what you're going through? What the heck is it?

Yikes!

Catherine, see your eye doctor ASAP. Any "flashes" are worrisome, can be a sign, from what I know, of retina detaching or other such serious problem, so you want to get it examined today!

Karen, I am sorry I didn't reply sooner! I'm kinda slow at these things now-a-days, I hope your procedure went well and hope everything got fixed up. Hospitals suck. Please update soon!
