Pathology Results Good but…and a dream!
November 17, 2006
Well today seemed to fly by. The first in two weeks I was behind the wheel of a car!! Yep since my surgey havent’ drove!! Felt nice LOL My pathology results came back good but the surgery was more extensive than they thought it would be initially so I have to allow myself more time to heal. My surgeon is estimating it will be 10 to 12 weeks before I am totally healed! Yikes!   But here comes the but…..
Took my son for an eye exam as he needed new glasses and got some bad news today that has me so very concerned. He is 14. When the eye doc was doing a test for focus, he noticed one of my son’s eyes doesn’t follow through as it should for example moving a pencil from far away to upclose, your eyes cross. My’s sons eyes do not cross and he has double vision from about 20 inches to up close. The brain is essentially shutting down one eye the eye doc said. If you have good eye muscle “tone” per say you could cross your eyes. So he is losing focus literally. I asked if this could be in part of his AdHd and his very short attention span, is his brain just shutting down on that too? He said could be a big part of it. His eye prescription has not changed again but he grew so kid glasses no long fit well so needed adult size frames. So he still needed new glasses. So now I am very worried. Its a bit freaky to see as he showed me and I showed my hubby and my dad and we have to work with him and I can take him back to see if any improvement and if not, well we have to see why the Brain is shutting down, thus getting a referral for a neurologist. He is an avid reader so I do not understand. He has never complained of headaches from reading or strain on the eyes. What gets me is why was this not caught sooner???Â
So mom is super worried here and so is my son, he has a hard enough time staying on track without something new to add to it.
So that was my day. Of course I should of known it was gonna be this way from the dream I had. I spent most of the night on the couch because I had a headache, hubby was snoring which didn’t help the headache and my oldest kitty Whisper was throwing up a lot last night. Well at 4:40 this morning hubby woke me up when he got up for work and said to go lay in bed and I did. Well I was dreaming that my dad and I were out shopping at a store and he ran into someone he had not seen in years. Then all of a sudden he started to get sick, went to the men’s bathroom came out said I think I have the flu I grabbed my cart and said we better go then but he looked like he was gonna be sick again, so I was looking for a container for in the car and came around the corner and my dad was standing there starring at me, and all of a sudden someone with a pillowcase over their head grabbed me I seen my dad, went limp and then the dream went BLACK! I forced myself awake, I mean I got up and stayed up!!! That totally freaked me out and I was in tears. Ya know I can’t imagine what if and my poor dad helpless as it is with his rhumatoid arthritis and just had to watch something like that happen, made me cry again! Totally freaked here! Most times I only remember bits and pieces of dreams but this is just sticking. Perhaps I wasn’t sound asleep, and not enough sleep? The pain meds? Or the fact a year ago to date we got a call from my Aunt that my dad goes to visit here in town at the lil store she works at telling me he was sick and her boss saying he is calling 9-11 and I get hubby out of the shower and we get there just as the ambulance did and see my dad laying there with bloody vomit all over him and he is unconscious. I freaked and ended up in hospital, and found out he had a bleeding ulcer in his stomach and had four blood transfusions. So I dunno if subconsciously that is why or what. But all I know is now I don’t wanna go shopping with my dad!
So I guess when your day starts off that way, perhaps it was a sign of how the day was gonna go!!
