Making progress on Monday

I am making much progress today. My eye is much better and am seeing more clearly. I can look side to side and up and down now and see some without double vision. I am confident that it will continue to improve. I look forward to complete recovery but if it does not get any better than it is now I am so grateful because it is 100 percent better than it was before the surgery. It still is watery and running some but no pain to speak of. I do not have pain very much. I am glad for that too. Most of the pain from all the troubles have been jaw pain. It is much, much better now. The next milestone to cross is getting more teeth. I am looking forward to that. It will be done in the next two months. I know now what it means to be content in all things and give thanks always. I am not a patient person but I have grown patients through the trials I have had since November 3. A couple more weeks of hand and jaw therapy and I will be through with that. Please pray for a friend named David who is in grave condition at Vanderbilt hospital. No matter what condition you find yourself in there is always someone who is worse and needs your help. Helping others helps you to heal also. Thanks for replying in Leslies blog about my condition. I am grateful for you all. Thanks, Larry

So happy to hear that your surgery went well and that you had your same dr to put you asleep. What a relief and comfort for you. Hang in there.
