My eye sight comes in second! :shock: Again, poking the dog! Anyway, have faith, there are many here pulling for you, and you are a good man, God has that in mind. Do what the Doc says, rest up, and stay strong. What happens is what happens, and you'll pull through it. I'm hoping better than you expect!
Damn Good Luck to You Matt!
.....If I were you Dan....I would rank your Arsesole up there at number one....because if that don't work you will quickly find out that no other part(s) of your body will function well for too long....hence the story of "all the parts of the body arguing over who should be boss!"....I'm sure you have heard that one! :shock: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

True, yet unfortunate. The arsehole does run the brain in effect, not the other way around as one should hope! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Not too bad. Mo sharks that time of year, but probably later on if I can get back out there...

Well, I went through the second surgery on the macula hole on the 6th. Just today am able to sit upright, having spent every day (and night) since then facing the floor and not moving for 22 of 24 hours a day. Was a bit of a trial, and damn happy that part is over now!! :shock:

We won't know how successful the 2nd surgery was for about 10 more days or so. The gas bubble in the eye is still present, and impossible to see through. Surgeon said the operation went well, so there is room for hope.

Depending on how that shakes out, the third (and hopefully final) surgery to deal with the cataracts these surgeries created will be done.

Long road. Still damn worried, but trying to remain hopeful.

Actually been practicing sighting the bow & rifle with my left eye (off the right shoulder) just in case. Certainly hope it doesn't come down to that!! Damned AWKWARD!! :(

Jury is out for a spell yet it seems...

Cheers,
Nog

Don, I just spoke to Nog a little while ago and it seems that was the penalty box for 22 hours a day. :shock: I suggested we change his Ironoggin handle to 'TenderVealGuy'....I think Matt prefers the original. :lol:
