I would like to start by saying Thanks..
Thanks to all my friends and buddies that have been concerned with my Dads health and my own eye issues. You prayers, phone calls and e-mails were appreciated.I really missed being at PRI and seeing y'all.
We are both doing well. We got Dad home Christmas Eve from his heart surgery. We didn't have much of a traditional Christmas, but we had a celebration. He had a couple of setbacks the following week, but came through OK. He is now staying by himself, in his own home, caring for himself. Not bad for an 84 year old geezer.. :~)
I am typing this with no glasses and went back to work last week on a limited basis.
I'm doing machine work, but "no lifting". This cold weather and glare off the snow is causing a little discomfort, but that will pass. It seems the massive doses of steroids they had me on last year didn't help my eyes. That was when my asthma had me in and out of the hospital for 2 months. It is so nice to be able to see again.
Again I thank you guys.
Fair warning!!
Watch out.....
Now that I can see what I'm typing you might have to endure a few more posts from me.
