2nd Cataract Surgery

I finally had my 2nd cataract surgery on Friday. All went well. A month of wonky eyes was too much. At least now they are the same, although I’ve got to figure out the reader situation. I think I need glasses where there is no script on top so I can just wear them all the time. On and off all day long is annoying. No more contacts or glasses that make my eyes look small!

I also got an appointment at a hospital in Boston with a doctor who specializes in lungs. Originally the appointment wasn’t until March, but they called this week with an appointment in September. Woot woot. I need to hear from an expert that there is really nothing more that can be done to improve my breathing. I don’t have a lot of faith in my current pulmonologist. But I did with the last one and he said the same thing…I have scar tissue from previous treatments and it is there to stay.  I really don’t want to accept that as it is what impacts my quality of life the most. So I’ll push a little harder to be confident I’ve done all I can.

We decided we needed a relaxing day yesterday so Dan drove me to the finger lakes to check out a couple of wineries. What a beautiful day it was with my favorite person. Take advantage of all the minutes.
