Guest guest Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Thanks, Barbara. We're doing ok at the moment. Yesterday we went to the optometrist for our eye exams. Betty still needs an operation to help with the Macular Degeneration. Her eyesight is slowly getting worse, and mine are being damaged from the Sjogrens and are starting to grow cataracts. We're just having all the fun we can! Take care of yourself, things are sure to get better, or worse, or stay the same. I do hope most of the stress of late will be gone soon and you can start to live a better life. You deserve it.

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Hi Dennis: Sorry to hear about Betty's eyes. My good friend has been having shots in her eye every 6 weeks for the last year and a half. Her vision is much better thank God. I don't know how much longer she will get those shots. Thank God it has worked and her eyesight saved. She is also almost deaf in both ears. She was facing a dismal furture. She was very scared. Sorry to read about your cataracts. I had them in both eyes due to the Prednisone, and had them operated on 2 years ago. Very simple surgery, and I had them done 1 week apart. I no longer need glasses for distance, and he corrected my vision to 20/15 in one eye, and 20/20 in the other eye. I just buy 150 strength reading glasses in the Dollar Tree store. They work perfect. Yes Dennis, I am doing better and feeling less stress. I am starting to feel like myself again. Just love our new home. Enjoying the great weather here, and also love the pool. Finally living the Florida Dream lifestyle. Are you having nice weather in Texas also? Is your climate the same as mine here? Wishing you and Betty better days ahead. Have a nice Easter, and don't eat all your Easter candy at one time. ha ha ha I didn't know Sjogren's disease bothers the eyes. I know they dry up your mouth. Do eye drops help you at all? You both take care. It is so wonderful that she is your soul mate. That is great!!!! Hugs, Barbara > > > > > > > I was glad to see you posted today.
