Appointment ran later than what I had
planned –
basically this is just going to keep happening UNTIL I
have a stem cell transplant from my left eye - the
eye is healthy just blind - and this is really up to me.
I have about 2 yrs. & 5 months before I have
30 years in wkere I work – that would be my ultimate
goal. If I can’t wait that long then my next goal
would be anytime AFTER the end of January, 2014 –
when my consolidation loan is paid off. Of course if
at any time I would absolutely need it ASAP then
most definitely it will happen at that time. Yes the
epithelial defect was large – between 4.5 and 5 mm
in size and yes, more cloudiness – both of these are
things I have dealt with before and will likely deal
with again according to my eye specialist. He
replaced the contact lense but other than that, no
new treatment - we both know what I am dealing
with and what is needed to give me the best possible
chance at improvement. Oh, the reason I am
waiting - my doctor is saying recovery and getting
back to work could take 3 - 6 months and currently
about 2 days of leave which would mean NO income
which means I want to build up a little leave time.
Anyway, that bandage contact lense has usually been
beneficial in the past at reducing the defect-
even healing it completely a time or two.
So that is what is happening right now. Hopefully
the Beaglebratz will return in a day or so.

Hi, Kim! Tell Shiloh and Shasta thanks for leaving such a wonderful welcome back message for me. So, my mom wants me to ask you what condition led to you having a corneal transplant if you don't mind. She has worked in the eye care business for 19 years and is just curious. Also, she is wondering if your epi defect is painful since it is on your transplant. We will keep you in our prayers!
Happy Tails!
Taffy
