My mom is my very best friend in the world, besides my husband. She has been an inspiration to me, and my father is passed, and he was my hero. I have/had great parents.

Last week my mother told me she was having problems with her eyes, blurred vision,etc. She found out yesterday, she had Glaucoma. And will need surger withint the week. She is scard to death, and I have been sick over the whole matter. I just love her so much, she is spunky, fun, and pretty too for her age, 72. Doesn't even look 60!

She has been so lucky with her health, and I hate to see this, she is scard to death, of this new technology, Laser, I am going to hold her hand all the way through this, just say a preyer for us. I am trying to get her scheduled for surgery ASAP, if it gets too bad, it could lead to total blindness. I consider allof you like second family.Thank you for letting me vent, and cry.

Thanks,
Sweetness!

If it helps, my Grandma who is 82 just had the surgery in February. She went to Myrtle Beach with us in August and had lots of fun. She is doing great. With lasers there really is no "down" time. It's like, in and out and she's good as new the next day!

My grandmother just had the surgery about 2 weeks ago...and her recovery went so well. After the surgery, she sat in the recovery room reading things she could never see before. My family and even herself were amazed at the results. I am sure everything will go smoothly
