Gee why call me and ask my medical opinion if you don't plan on LISTENING to it. She's fine according to her. Whatever. You'd think with the news we got today she'd be in the mood to listen to reason (her best friend from childhood was diagnosed with early stage lung cancer today and her other best friend from childhood had to go back in for more cauterization of throat vessels (though this friend is doing her best to kill herself) and a third friend of the family had her cancer return. Well today just ranks up there high as a suck-ass day.

As for me went to the eye doctor's today. Good news, no diabetic changes bad news, my vision is getting worse but I'm also getting old so one contact will be for far vision and the other won't be for near but it will stay what it is now because if we move them both to fix my far vision I probably won't be able to read close.

And is it a bad thing when you make the tech yelp when she looks through that refraction machine and sees JUST how bad your eyesight is?

Adopt one today!

Mom fell two days ago. It was almost funny - I was thinking as I drove to her place for lunch, "Wouldn't it be wild if I had to take Mom to the E.R. and couldn't go back to work?"

And I got there and she'd bruised herself all up, stumbling over a stob in one of the gardens.

I've tried to get her to do balance exercises - not like I don't know those firsthand. I think I'll start pushing more for it.

Since it's probably sheer luck she hasn't broken anything yet.

Cracked ribs when she fell down the stairs. A whole flight of stairs.

Man, that's awful regarding your mom's friends.

I'm glad that at least the diabetes isn't impacting your vision (sounds like you really can't afford it.)

yeah mom's getting to that age where things start falling apart

yeah, my vision is pretty bad. I wear very strong contacts and blindness is one of the #1 complications of diabetes
