I'm not sure, but I think there's no cure for the age-related macular degeneration, so if that's what's causing it, it's just the start of the road to total blindness.
If it's the cataract, they might yet convince her to go in & have it seen to. She had 1 eye done about 5 years ago & was just about to have the 2nd eye done when their world got blindsided.
It's more of a rant-at-self, as I really should've nagged more & got her to at least have the cataract tested... but it's never been my style - bit too "live & let live" sometimes!
She has at least quit driving during hours of darkness, but that's the next challenge... I'll have to confiscate all the car keys...
Cheers! I've hit send RC It's a part time job that'd be right up my street, rather than just any old job like I usually apply for out of sheer desperation to find employment!
Rashlesnaffleggrrrrrruffle etc in a Mutley stylee...
The bloke's just come to sign off the boiler installation & check all the gas appliances... & the sod condemned my cooker! You'd think you'd get more than 19 years' service out of a 2nd hand cooker. Bloody cheek. I'm gonna complain to the shop forthwith!
Thank goodness it's not Xmas at mine... I think I might just've dissolved into girlie tears at the news... as it is, I've rarely got credit in the gas meter so I nuke most stuff in the micro!
ROFL! Cheers LTGTR!
Mother's being equally sympathetic to my plight, saying they're all piling round to mine for their turkey today, seeing as she spent most of Xmas Eve up at Moorfield's Eye Hospital. At the I A&E... perhaps it's a vowel hospital?
Best I break out the BBQ
Gotta take her back to hospital on Thursday for confirmation of yesterday's diagnosis & to make sure the "wet macular haemmorage" something or other has started to dissipate, then it's regular injections into the eyeball for an unspecified time period.... Eeeeeeewwww!
Aother mate has passed away on new years eve, so happy fookin holidays thos time of year is shite full on shite good will to all men if there was a god...... i am fooookin angry no justisie in this world.
Grr! folk who don't reply to mail, wassup, is it too much strain to type a few sentences in reply?
Some of them contact me FIRST and I reply to them then they just ignore me!!
It seriously pees me off
Love your new photo Boody, you look very business like.
I think you're right about folk. An old Yorkshire saying 'Nowt so *queer as folk' springs to mind.
*not a reference to sexuality, it means 'odd'
