Who Cares What Nansi Thinks?

Here it is, four months after mom's cataract surgery and we're still struggling with her eyes. It's been such a struggle. About a week or so after her last surgery she began seeing "red spots". It turned out to be a retinal hemorrhage. She's had laser surgery, but the spots really aren't clearing up.

The retina specialist won't let me get Mom's glasses prescription filled because he thinks there will be major changes once the problem settles.

Mom can, however, still read with drug store readers. She's also been able to get unlimited large print books and magazines. I'm amazed at her determination NOT to lose her ability to read.

It's been three weeks since I've actually seen her. The nursing home has a ban on visitors with any sort of illness in their family. We've had so much going around our house! We've been five days without a fever though so I think we're good to visit this weekend.
