Hand Therapy and Eye Surgery


Pix has nothing to do with my problems I am just
thinking about the next 4th of July.


I am going to hand therapy two times a week now. It is very strenuous bending on my hands and I have to go through several exercises on them at home also. It takes me 2 hours a day to do all of it. They are getting much better. My right hand has allot of strengthening and loosening up to do but it is getting there. I went to my eye surgeon yesterday. I have eye surgery on Feb. 20 which happens to be my 66Th birthday. I will be real glad to be able to see single vision without tilting my head back. She said it is a 23 hour deal. I will be put under general anesthesia. She said that I might have to have some muscle surgery later if the vision is not completely corrected. My right eye is 10 mm lower than the left. It will be lifted and tilted somewhat. My jaws are healing but I still have some difficulty on the left side. The joint was completely destroyed. I can eat but have to be careful. I am still thankful to be alive and able to tell everyone my struggles and how I am overcoming them. It is also very important for me to tell you it is with the help of God and Jesus my savior that I am able to be thankful and very hopeful for a full recovery. If not a full the very best that I can have. I know that he is with me and has been through all of my trials. I will update after eye surgery. Larry
