Im afraid that I can't see the screen so hang in there through this one ok? Okay, I got the surgery on my right eye today. It takes anywhere from two weeks to two months for the eye's swelling to go down and allow my vision to clear up a bit. This is not factoring in the blood that is in and around and on the retina that makes it look as if I'm looking through a taillight. It's blurry and red so colors are still difficult for me to tell apart and reading things like this blog are far fetched if at all possible. This one was twice as painful and I'm not sure why but it will take longer to get over these horrific headaches.
SO here is the prognosis. Dr says that the new black streams going through my vision in my left eye are a good thing...yeah I agree, a good thing that I can't see?...but he says it's the blood that was bleeding from the nerves in the retina before he burned that part of the sick retina off. So it turns out that he can burn that part off, and it stops the sick retina from telling the eye to bleed constantly...however, now we are waiting for that to heal so that they eye can actually stop the bleeding. Problem is the nerves will keep growing no matter what and they will eventually bleed as well so this is a continuous procedure that will continue until I eventually lose sight due to the eye not being able to stop bleeding, gaining pressure on the eye and contracting glaucoma. Fun right?
Looks like I have alot to do before this happens. If anyone has connections on petting white tigers or photo opps in that situation...or is educated on mileage, price and time management on drivin down Highway One, PLEASE let me know. These are things on the top of my bucket list that sight is imperative for...some i had, like possibly having children in the future are growing dim if not impossible,catch my drift? It's time to stop being frivolous and startvsaving up for bigger things. Your prayers, especially the ones I did not expect, are much appreciated. I have people contacting me that I would have never dreamed would. If you only knew the situation you would know that God works in mysterious ways and he touches people and brings them together in the worst of times. And support comes in many forms but all is wanted and love is always welcome. Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers. I hope all of this is able to be read...cuz I can't read it. Autocorrect sometimes kills my words so I'm worried. But I'm gonna post anyways. Love to all of my family and friends. I will keep informed.
