I just got back from a long week-end. Daniel just had lasik surgery (is that how you spell it) As soon as he came out of the office he read a sign clear across the parking lot. They have a tv screen so you can watch the surgery, it is kind of spooky, but it takes no time at all. We spent the night at Gran's. Then they checked his eyes again in the morning and I drove him back. It is amazing watching the process. They use these hooks to anchor the eyes open and then the drop lots of liquid in and and then do the radiation part and then clean the eye, scrub it, and then put cold water in. Daniel said that was the worst part, really cold. Then he has to put one kind of drops in every 20 minutes and three other drops in every four hours. He has to wear sunglasses outside for the next 6 months. It is amazing. Sara drove back home with us so she could take him home. That was nice of her to give up her night to help take care of her big brother.
A funny side note. As soon as they started, my eyes started aching and even now, 32 hours later, they still hurt! Mom's sympathy pains!

Please tell Daniel we say hello. We were just wondering what he was up to a few days ago.
We have been getting a good amount of snow and it is piling up into a mini snow hill at the end of our parking lot. It has sure brought back a lot of memories.
ouch!! I have always wondered how that happened and now I know! I guess Im always afraid of the bad side-affects. You know, stuff we find out years later. I'd love to only need to wear glasses as a cosmetic affect, that'd be cool. Congrats to Daniel, oh yay, and how much did it cost?
ps I hope your eyes feel better soon!
