Bye Bye Left Eye
With all the fighting with all the tries It seems I was able to end this year with no live cancer cells BUT I also will start a new year in the same place as last year...In the hospital More tests More surgeries More eye checks and meetings with the prosthetic doctor
and than BAM it's bye bye to the left eye! Sorry I hadn't done an update in a while but want to tell everyone. I already meet with one doctor who meet with me about the prosthetics and such. Learned a lot from him. The bummer part is that I would have to wait three weeks for my face to recover before I would be able to get the fake eye put in. In that three weeks I have to walk around with the white gauge paper and white medical tape ( you know the look).
(ps don't say losing your eye is better then what could have happened. Yes it's a true statement and one I beg NOT to hear again...it makes me cry, again and just when I am done, I start over).
Also, I want to thank everyone again. The people who have been a part of the different fundraisers have helped us more than you can imagine. Financially, we would have never it made it thru all the bills, seriously, THANK YOU! Your generosity melts my heart and restores my faith in mankind. Remember you made a difference in a strangers life!!!!

OMGosh. I really hope no one would ever say that. It is truly a loss that you have every right to cry over, be angry over and mourn over.
I am so sorry. Why things have to be so tough for some people, I will never know.
Life just isn't fair and it ***** the big one sometimes.

It has always been talked about (Since August of last year when my second opinion doc brought it up) anyway, it's weak, always in pain and bugs/infections/bacteria ect get into it easy. These things don't just affect my, they get through my whole body (that's a thought as to how/why I got the pneumonia I had). I went on Tuesday and I think that was step one one of the process and my oncology is getting everything else under order, scheduling all the docs, the operating room, anesthesiologist ect

Re: Bye Bye Left Eye
OMg, thats just awful Deb. You must be scared and it just suckks!
Question- Stupid one at that, just curious..the prosthetic eye..its just there for cosmetic purposes right? So you will just have vision in one eye then from here on out?
You poor girl. Is it a hard surgery recovery wise etc?

it's nthere for cosmetic purposes but it is also there so keep the face up, without it your eyelids and the skin above the cheeks would start sinking in and all kinds of otherproblems woud start happening. I no longer have vision in my left eye so it doesnt mean anything to me. For a while I was able to see light and dark but ove the last week or so that has gone bye bye and no if I close my right eye there is nothing but black (and sometimes I get those little circle/specs you get when you get up too fast
