The Fantasy: I wish my nurse looked like this
The Fact: My nurse fainted when she saw how ugly I was2008 - The Year Of Recovery
It’s been fourteen months, count ‘em – fourteen bloody months since I lost 70% of my vision due to cataracts and glaucoma caused by steroid toxicity. The good news is that I’ve just this morning been discharged from hospital after getting a silicone lens implanted in my right eye. I had the same surgery done on my left eye late last October so now I have super clear vision in both eyes.
Have thrown my glasses away. I’ve also lost 60kg in weight since I stopped taking the damn steroids and am now back to my aerodynamic old self. All that’s left now is to start an exercise program because I was confined to my bed for eight months after my body “jammed up” when I stopped taking those goddamed steroids, so my muscles have kinda atrophied.
That, and to work on getting better. I will beat this nerve condition. I will get better. I will completely recover. Dave Avran Boleh!
