Guest guest Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 HI THERE: RIGHT NOW my eyes are dilated and I guess after crying all the way home from the eye surgeons office, he is NOT going to perform surgery on my left eye. He said it wouldn't do any good and will never get any better and it is way too dangerous, as once I have had the detached retinal surgery I had, and then the cataract surgery, too many things could go wrong and infection could set in and that would not only cause blindness in the eye but the pulmonary fibrosis would take A STAND, if you know what I mean. So no more surgery, no more doctors, tomorrow I am going to drive. Look out world!!! He said I could and just be careful. Lots of folks out there drive with one eye. Going to go to the store tomorrow and buy an eye patch, and when Earl comes home from work tomorrow night, he will see " A Pirate In The Kitchen " cooking his mush. HAHAHA I guess life is funny, huh? He also said I have a cataract starting in my RIGHT EYE. OMG !! What next? Blindness. They say PF causes blindness, and cataracts, etc. I am getting them, aren't I? Weight gain, thin skin, moon face, moon butt, black and blue marks all over my body from the disease, can't see, plastic tubing across my face and everyone still love me, must be my cooking??????????????? yup, that's it!!! lol Earl waited in the dr. office for almost 2 hrs. (with appt too), he didn't get to go get his Zpak from the pharmacy until this moment. The dr. put him on zpak for the bad summer cold because he doesn't want to infect me if he has an infection. Such is life, huh? Then he waited 2 more hrs. in my drs. office with me, What a man !!! I still am happy, loved, and have all of you loving me too. How much more could I possibly be Blessed. I have such a good man taking care of me. He stays with me only because he likes my cooking. Believe me, 30 years of my cooking and everyone looks great. lol Better go now. I LOVE YOU THIS DAY !! HEAVEN IS IN THE NEXT ROOM !!
