My Six-Month Checkup

Posted on Blog Uncategorized

Last Friday was my scheduled Six-Month Checkup with my Neuro-Ophthalmologist.  Ophthalmologist  What a screwed up way to spell a weird word.  Anyway, earlier this week, the doctor’s office called and said that Dr. Katz was going to be out on medical-leave for 10 weeks.  Crap.  We had the opportunity to meet with his “Fellow” Dr. Collins…

I told you last week about, my oldest son, Grant’s great taste in music.  Well, this week I went to my companies National Sales Meeting.  He gave me his old iPod to listen to during my flight there and back.  It was very nice to be able to close both my eyes and relax.  When…

Music to my ears!

Do you remember me telling you that my oldest son, Grant, set me up with some tunes for the first few months of this ordeal?  Since that time, even with improved vision, I’ve gotten more into listening to music.  You name the type of music and I think I’ve listened to it.  Pop, Rock and…

I know, it’s a big statement.  But, I’m a big statement kind of guy.  Just ask anyone. This Christmas season started off with the appreciation that I was here and could even see.  Once we had that, as a foundation, we built on the time-honored traditions of years past.  During our trip to Grandma &…

Many of you have asked how I’m doing.  I’m happy to say that things are going quite well.  It’ll be hard for you to look me in the eye and NOT wonder, “how can he say that?”. A friend and customer of mine innocently asked me this week, “what can’t you do that you wished…
