Post Op Day 1, body

Close-up of a person after eye surgery — Moments after the bandage is removed. Unfiltered. Capturing the journey in more detail the second time around.

Movement is a mindset.

Start with six miles

Couple smiling for a photo — Photo: September 2022…looking forward to getting back within a week from today (mid-September, 2023).

Cherish when things take a sudden turn for the best.

Called Dr. Kumar’s office this morning.

Why?

Dr. Kumar wanted to see me in two weeks and said i could call to come in earlier if my sight got worse.

But…

He didn’t say anything about what to do if things got better, faster.

Things are going better than expected.

So i called.

Moved the two-week appointment ahead by five days.

Why?

Because Dr. Kumar is going to like what he sees when he examines my retina.

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

Retina photograph — 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.
