Well... boy do i take the gift of my vision for granted. last night i had a little episode. i had an eye exam in 2005 and they told me i had lattice degeneration. they said it was congenital and really there is nothing i can do about it. i'm always wondering if some kind of vitamin supplement would at least help it out, or stop it from getting worse. but i was told to watch out and if i experience something like a curtain dropping and black spots, to get checked out.
i was walking down the hall last night and in my left eye i experienced "the curtain fall". but it somehow went away after a few minutes. talk about a shocker.
what would i do if i couldn't see my children's faces? or see their little smiles? or see where the boo boo is to kiss it?
i'm a bit worried, and i'm waiting until january for the health benefits to kick over again before is see the specialist. you are only allowed so many opthamologist visits... 1 every 2 years. but if it gets worse i'll have to be seen sooner and just pay the piper.
St. Lucy! Pray for me! I hope this is nothing.
thank God for this blog. it will help me to remember dates of when things happen... kinda like a health log.
Lord, I'm so sorry for taking the physical gifts that You have bestowed upon me for granted. Please heal me in all ways. Help me to do Your will. I trust in You. Amen.
update: well... looks like i'm putting a call in. i read online that this could progress and get worse. the eye feels funny all day. and it is definitely more blurry. however, i don't want any kind of surgery for this. scares me to death! will have to let God handle this one... if you read this, please say a Hail Mary for my fears. Thank you!
