Hello!!

CalicoMom here.

It has been a horrendous experience and I have a long way to go. My eye is still almost swollen shut and very red. It is still dilated for some reason, everything very blurry; but the Dr. said the hole was sealed! That is the important thing. I am able to look up some now, so thought I would update; and thank all of you for your wonderful comments. Thanks also to Missy (I got the package yesterday!) I am waiting until I feel better to give the girls the nip. Also thanks to Linda for the fev-vers!!!!

It will be a while before I can get glasses, so seeing is going to be a chore. I always wore hard contact lens and have decided to go to glasses. They say it may take up to three months before I can get the proper fit, and as nearsighted as I am, I just can't wait that long.

Thanks to all of you who teleported over. Funny, I could feel the presence of little furry bodies. Thanks to all of you for being my friend, for all the purrayers and good thoughts; it means so much.

Toni

Sweet. You can type :) But don't look up too much just so we can talk to you. we don't want your eye to not heal. Oh, and let the kitties lick it for you, cause that'll make it feel so much better.

It is just so wonderful to have you back, everyone has been sending good thoughts, and missing you so much. The Meezers Mom is right - you are the bravest person I know too, I don't think I could have done this. And glasses are o.k., I gave up my contacts some years ago and got used to glasses again. Take it easy, and don't blog or email too much.
