Last week I took Edina to the eye doctor to have her eyes looked at because she complained that things on her left side looked like they were falling over and at school she was having difficulties with her letters but not at all struggling with anything else.
after leaving the eye doctors last week i felt they did not look into the problem or listen to any of my concerns about her problems, the doc said that she could use a small prescription but felt that it was not enough of one and he also felt she was too small for glasses to make a difference and her problems that she was complaining of had nothing to do with her eyes.
So I went with my instinct and went to another doc yesterday, the doc listened to both of us about all the concerns, did the exam and concluded that she indeed does need glasses for her left eye because the cornea is shaped wrong, so for months she will wear glasses and we go back to have her looked at again to see if they are correcting the problem, if not we then need to see another doc and talk about surgery to fix this problem.
It goes to show that a mother knows best for the well being of her children and will go the extra mile to make sure her children are looked after the right way.
On other news today my dad starts his chemotherapy treatments for his cancer today, lots of thing run though my mind on this subject, happy that the show is on the go, and scared for him at the same time. its fighting chance for him and we all hope he kicks this cancer.
my mom should be starting her chemo soon too. i can only hope that they find a cure for her so I can still call her everyday to say "I love you mom".
