It has been a week 1/2 since my eye surgery and things are healing pretty well. I didn't quite realize how painful it would be. It kept me down for several days. I guess that is expected, I mean they did put me out for it. I guess the doctor didn't tell me that is was going to take a few days to get back on my feet. After everything I've been through though, aggh, this was nothing. lol Really though; right now, I have double vision still, but it is now on the other side. Everything has two of them, just flip-flopped from where it used to be. I talked to a friend who had this surgery when he was a baby and he said that at first they would seem over-corrected, then straighten up. I am hoping that is correct, bc that is how mine are. I go back Thursday for a check-up.
Jacob is getting bothered with me bc I don't do enough therapy; I know I need to do more, but I am just at a point to where I do not have the desire to do more. I did it for a year- hardcore and I just want a break. I know I shouldn't, but I don't know how to motivate myself. Maybe I can get there. Hopefully.

So, I went to the eye doctor a couple of weeks ago; he looked at my eyes and said there was no way he could give me glasses to correct the double vision. I wanted glasses. But, since they can’t do that, I am having eye surgery on Sept. 17th. I didn’t want to have another surgery, but if it’s the only way, then I guess its okay. He said it is no big deal and it seems like they do this all the time. If it will correct the double vision and make me be able to drive again, then I’m all for it! =) Also, I am waiting on my new medication to help my hand quit hurting all the time. The medication is one that will (hopefully) help the nerve pain to go away, instead of just taking Tylenol that only helps pain. I hope it helps! I am saying my prayers!
