FINALLY!! AFTER GOING THROUGH HECK LAST WEEK AND PART OF THIS ONE - MY 2ND CATARACT SURGERY IS SCHEDULED FOR NEXT WEEK ON THE 10TH!!!! THANK GOODNESS...

 I did not think it was even going to happen!! But FINALLy after  MANY phone calls and griping, fussing (NEVER GOT A HUMAN ONLY MACHINES THE ENTIRE TIME I WAS TRYING TO CALL)!!


The girl I like so well, called me herself. She happened to have been on vacation last week & did not know about the technological issues with the Cataract machine, my surgery getting cancelled & that no one had even trie to call me back to at least update me.. As I told her it was NT her Fault! First f all the machinery failed, and she was on vacation so she didn't know.. and besides things like that are no ones fault other than the people who were IN the OFFICE last week & could have at least "updated" me...

So I am back on tract for Aug 10th, next Tuesday!


 I just pray I stay on tract and so does the cataract Machine!

Left Eye Cataract & Astigmatism done & Right in in Two Weeks! Then onto healing & trying to get my right Shoulder Fixed!

 So far ao good on the Cataract surgery From Tuesday! Gosh what an awesome Doctor and Team! Everyone from check-in, surgical set-up to nurses, Anesthesia, to the Doctor were incredible!


LOL, and the Anesthesia, they did not fool around. they gave me one that really sent m for a "loop" LOL, but although I was out of it, I really never went to "sleep" etc... I used to call it the don't give a damned medication"! It worked, kept me comfortable, not nervous, and even going on the ride home, & into the next morning, I was really where i was "myself" yet I was not nervous, or hurting... they had it down, and I believe they used what they used on me due to my chronic Pain Issues and other Autoimmune illnesses. they knew I had been through lots of other surgeries also ad had a high tolerance for anesthesia, so he really was right on target getting me comfortable.

My son took me, and then the next morning I was still kind of out of it, but really more agitated since he put a patch over it overnight. So, when I woke up i could not take it off, I had to leave it on till I let them take it off at the office. So, my son taking me the next morning to check it out was really a blessing. Plus he and I don't get to spend much time together. So, we did get a bit of time just the 2 of us to kind of catch up on things.
