sick a minute
I've been sick a minute
sinking deep in it
The never ending stress
Had me depressed.
It's a blessing since 2017
To live my life pain free.

So glad...
to hear that you are having the corrective-surgery. Having problems with your eyes is the pits. I had laser surgery to correct my glaucoma a few months ago. So glad that it wasn't something more serious. Doctor says that eventually, I will have to have the cataract-surgery, but not necessary yet. I have to be careful as I only have one good one and nothing can be done for the left one as it is permanently blind. "Sight is precious, protect it at all costs!"
