Well, I am back home now. The procedure was over in no time, as many of you had told me it would be.
When I first posted, I was extremely anxious – to the point of tears. I was a bit nervous to begin with, but, the day before my posting, someone had told me in conversation that I would be awake the whole time and there would be “pincher things” placed on my eye. I was indeed awake the whole time, but I am pretty sure there were no “pincher things”. (I guess her procedure was for something different.)
First of all, I thank our Precious Lord for bringing me through it safely. And I am so grateful to God that I live in a time and in a country where I can get this kind of medical care.
My thanks to all of you for your prayers. It was most awe-inspiring to find such an intense feeling of peace settling through my being as I read through your many prayers on my behalf. Your petitions regarding my anxiety must have moved the Holy Spirit.
I am also so grateful for the kind words and encouragement that many of you sent my way, along with the witty comments. Such a blessing.
Prayers up for you, my Friends.
You are very kind to include me in your after action report.
I knew everything would go just great. It makes me very happy you are okay.
I need surgery for my right eye now. The first went fantastic.
Those of us who grew up and still live in the tropics (Panama) eventually have cataract problems.
By the way, kitty cats, and I presume dogs also, get cataracts. What is wonderful here in Panama is the MD ophthalmologists operate on pets for a low fee (compared to human fees). It makes me feel good. It is an act of charity and kindness on their part.
Thanks so much for pinging and letting us know it went well Bigg Red. Because of hearing loss early in my life, I was very scared about eye surgery and understand other’s fears.
Now it’s eye drops for many weeks, lol. Take care!
