tenacity


One month after cataract surgery,
my right eye is still wrong. 
In addition to blurry, it's now also red, itchy and swollen.
Turns out I'm allergic to the eye drops.


Tenacity 
will keep me hanging on until I can see again.

This simple reminder is my gift to you:
Take nothing for granted;
get grateful now!

Damn :(
My mama had cataract surgery and one eye went well and one was like yours. But, in the long run it worked out so hang in there…..

Thanks, Mary. I'm like that little sucker-footed vine, in it for the whole climb.

Oh, I am finally scheduled for cataract surgery on MY right eye in two weeks. I have stalled long enough but really seeing clearly has become a problem! I will keep your allergy in mind just in case! Was it totally weird or not too bad (the actual surgery)? Friends say it's "a piece of cake." We will see! Hope your eye is better by now!

And that's why we call them 'friends'.
Then they say, "I'm sure you'll do fine. Good luck."
So do I.

Oh no....I'm sorry you're having problems after surgery.

Thinking of you.
