Warning – Gas bubble in eye

Green health warning bracelet
Removed this from my wrist, without doctor approval, because i saw the gas bubble disappear.

It’s only impossible until you do it the first time.

This morning’s brief sunrise walk validated my improving vision. Still a bit foggy but hugely better than one week ago.

Retina, i love you

John said my retina looks exactly like it’s supposed to.

What will you see when can no longer see?

dad

Was able to see the very top, single letter on the eye chart. Not a top-line letter. The only letter. The biggest letter. The letter that fills the chart. It’s giant.

After 10 seconds, i guessed it was an E.

While i would never bet my life on it, it was my best guess.

i was correct.

Progress.

Truly.

Note: The two previous exams i didn’t even know i was in a room with walls.

Eye surgery update, body

Walked four miles yesterday.

Slowly.

No exertion.

Couch potato pace.

Decided to water the palm trees, without exerting myself. Another four miles walking without leaving our yard.

This morning Cheryl and i walked four miles together. Same drill, slow pace.

Another four miles in the yard.

Back to back eight-mile days.

Healthy mindset

Healthy living facilitates physical resiliency. Physical resiliency mitigates stress, and accelerates illness and injury recovery.

Hurricane Idalia should have been our second hurricane we weren’t home for, since 1982. Hurricane Ian was the first, less than a year ago.

Emergency eye surgery August 17 (13 days ago) cancelled my August 19 return to Glacier.

So far we have not experienced any adverse weather. Heading out soon for the drive downtown.

Remember, virtues can’t be theory for you. Your patience is confirmed by your actions, not your thoughts, hopes, or words.

Hurricane Idalia set to hit Florida in 14 hours.

Projected to be Category 3.

Retina Specialist Doctor appointment in 16 hours.

i can wait until next week if needed should the office need to close for employee and patient safety.

Orlando should be spared.

However, Central Florida remains a potential tornado hotspot.
