Leroy and his eyes

Hello,

Leroy saw the family Dr. today. He learned that the MRI showed basically everything was ok, except for a minor sinus infection. He is in good shape otherwise. He just sees double as that nerve is not working properly.

Following that appointment he had one with the eye Dr. There he learned that his condition has changed a bit and he needs a stronger prism. That will take a week or ten days for the new glasses to come in. So I will be doing more chauffeuring.

The Dr. did tell him that there is no place, which he knows of, that would do the glasses in an hour. Leroy is wearing his new glasses because the view is much sharper than with his old. The Dr. cautioned him to keep the old in case everything went back to the way it was before this started.

We are happy to report that we do not have to pay for the second pair of glasses. I was wondering who would pay since it cannot be blamed on anyone else. In the meantime Leroy can read a little better with these new glasses in spite of wearing the patch on his eye. At least he is adjusting to this new condition.

We are just taking it one day at a time. We have many blessings. In some ways this is more of an inconvenience than an illness.
