The remaining stitches are coming out tomorrow. You would think after having this done multiple times I would not fear it anymore. And I guess it isn't even that I am really afraid. It just means that this is the turning point after this second transplant.
The stitches come out and then we move forward. But do I move forward with better vision or the same as before? I know that there are a lot worse struggles in life, and I have been extremely lucky in the turnout of my circumstances, but sometimes I think about the fact that I am 32 years old and am potentially going down a path to blindness.
I have been really encouraged by friends and family, but it is still hard when I think about certain things. Like knowing I will potentially fail my next drivers test, or realizing how much I take for granted.
I'm glad I am trying to set some new priorities for this year, because they are helping me see things from a different perspective.
Change happens and even though sometimes the changes aren't what we want, they may be what we need.
Don't get me wrong, I am not thrilled about tomorrow, but I will still enjoy today. And if you think about it, tomorrow will be today eventually, so maybe I will be fine.
Till tomorrow
