I saw my retinologist this morning, so I’m running around looking like “Anime Roe” — my eyes are all pupil, basically black. My doc says my retinas are in good shape, considering (I’m horribly nearsighted and I’ve previously torn my retina), so I am a happy girlie. Only catch is that I’m doing a mighty fine Mr. Magoo impression — my pupils are so dilated that I can’t really read. I’m virtually doing this entry by Braille. :D

My mother is having surgery tomorrow — they’re replacing her knee replacement — so fingers crossed, please. She already has a hip replacement in that leg; when they did that operation there were some complications — they put the replacement in, but her bone fractured, so they had to do it again with a longer implant. A trauma surgeon will be in the OR tomorrow to assist. Yes, the family’s nervous.

More tomorrow night, after I’m home…
