it is doable


I am trying a new thing today; changing my font size. It just seems logical to make it easier for myself to communicate on here. So, I am doing better just sitting here.

So, the latest is my mom came & went real quick. I am not sure how well it went because I think she was at her best & that made me uncomfortable. She made time for me. I felt that she communicated pretty well. I just hope that now that she is back in her home down south, she will do better. She wants to keep connected up here & I don't know if that is a good thing or not. I just hope someday that she can let go. I understand why she wanted to come back up here.

So, what's up w/ me is that I feel much better about my reading. It might just be lighting or maybe I don't get enough light outside. I can read w/ a book light. It isn't as much of a struggle as it was before. Three weeks & counting on getting my procedure. I am still a little apprehensive only because I don't know how much my co-pay will be. I don't know what my insurance will cover. It is a necessary procedure.

I have so much to be grateful for. I have to stop complaining especially about the things I cannot change.

I will change my focus. I will concentrate on the good things.

Thanks for being there for me.

Kathleen

Kathleen -

I have been keeping you and your eyes in my prayers! Sending positive thoughts your way too. I have a program friend here who had to have an eye surgery and she's on the back end of it. I don't know what her issues were, but the sight returns gradually, if at all. She was so down after as it was not good sight. But, as they suggested, it just keeps getting better....slowly but it's coming around.

Know that you're not alone and we're all pulling for your HP to give you exactly what's needed to see, share and enjoy the boards and all things around you!  (((Hugs)))

{{Kathleen}}, sounds like your Mom's visit was uneventful?  Hope that

it was not as difficult as you anticipated.  Glad that you are counting

down to getting your sight corrected and hoping that you are not

stressing to much, we are all pulling for you and sending prayers.

Thanks for the updates.  It sounds like it was a pretty good visit with your mom! Isn't it interesting how a small change like the size of a font size can make a difference.  That's great.  Sometimes I'm amazed by some very simple changes can really influence how I feel and how I see things for the better. 

Hope you'll keep sharing with us in the days leading up to your procedure and update afterwards.  Your hp will be there with you through it all.  (((hugs))) TT
