Yesterday I had a checkup at the eye doctor. It’s been six months since my last appointment, and not a lot has happened during that period of time. Which was also pretty much the conclusion of the checkup. My eye looks well, all things considered. Everything seems stable for now, so I’ll come back in another six months for my next checkup, end of story.<\/p>\n
I was in and out fairly quickly. The usual little tests and photography. It’s nice that they’re keeping a check on things. So I don’t have to feel like I’m left all alone with it all. And I can always call them if something happens or I feel insecure about something. So that’s good. I’m just glad that I don’t have to run back and forth to the hospital anymore. And no pain. No surgery. I got through the roughest part, now there’s just everything ahead of me.<\/p>\n
I talked to the doctor a little about how I’m dealing with things too. He said that it was important to be able to accept things and move on to be able to have a good life. And that it seemed like I was doing well with that. Which I agreed with. It can be distressing at times, but I think I have done well to look forward instead of backwards. There is no point in thinking about the things I have lost. I try to be greatful for the things I still have. It’s the only way to stay sane.<\/p>\n
