Saturday morning we got up to ‘no-water’ in the park. So we administered the ‘3’ different drops 5 minutes. apart. She lay there for a few minutes, then I noticed she was touchy, she wouldn’t let me help her get dressed (smile). So we headed out for breakfast Then check the mail over in Eustis.
We were a little early to check the mail, so I did something out of character, “Would you like to stop and walk around the Mall?” She said yes. She usually looks at some blouses & dresses. She looked at a couple but said, I will come back when I can see better. (ouch)
We also stopped by a park on Lake Eustis and watched the boats, water and some squirrels. She was in a better mood but she was wearing a pair of glasses blocked off on the right eye and covered that with the giant sunglasses.
We checked the mail, came home and ‘no water’. I was going to make soup but son-Jack had given me a Subway card for Father’s day so we did Subway. Two tuna subs with veggies. As we sat there, she had taken off her sun glasses. She looked over at me and said, “I feel like crying!”
“What? Honey what’s wrong?”
“I can read that menu, it looks beautiful, This is the first time I have been out in months that I can see, I’m going to cry, and tears came to her eyes. She said I feel light as a feather.” All of a sudden, the eye focused and did what it was supposed to do. She is one happy camper.
I sat there sorta dumb founded.
Imma tell you, it is hard to understand the female species.
I remembered this from another forum and I had to bring it over.
To cap this off, she is at her computer on the other side of the table and I just asked her 'how are you?' “The eye feels so good, this is great.”
I am a happy camper too!

I am thrilled for her! (And you!)
Yea!!!! That is wonderful news!! Now she'll know better what to expect when the other eye gets operated on!
betty
I'm so happy for you both.
Uh-oh, I was growing concerned how this post began.
But like all great story-tellers, your timing was spot on.
Big old tears just sprung to my eyes when she said, "I can read that menu!"
This one gave me goosebumps and remembering when I had my lasik done, the first day I woke up and could read the bedside clock without reaching for my glasses was just awesome! So happy to hear this good news!!!
My two older sons had to wear thick glasses and it was a blessing to see that they didn't need glasses after having surgery.
I'm so glad Sherry is doing well and can see so much better.
Reading this made me a happy camper too. I am so happy for Sherry. This will enhance her life. Of course, now that she can see you more clearly you won't be able to skip a shave because she'll notice:)
