Hello to all.
Just a very quick note to say that I am still in the land of the living.
The eye operation was far more difficult than originally thought because of the massive scaring from the first operation, one of the Doctors told me after the operation it was the worst scaring she had seen in eight years of doing that type of work.

The recovery therefore is extremely slow,injections, tables and more eye drops. The vision is extremely blurred due to all the medications. The eye is also extremely light sensitive which means staying inside most of the time in a darkened room. Even typing this is a big pain in the you know where. If every thing goes OK they intend to operate on the other eye within two months. I hope to be back for a short time within 5-10 days

Regards Keith

My best to you Keith. Just know that my thoughts and prayers are with you for a fast and full recovery. Don't push it and do what the doctor's recommend and you'll be back at full capacity quickly.

We'd been wondering about you in chat the other day Keith!

Glad to know you're still where the fishtanks come in limited sizes.

*raises gravel vac* Here's to a better recovery!

^_^

Heal up Keith, and take it easy.
