(And I understand the hating G-d part, for sure.) <BR/><BR/>I am hoping that if there is a visual impairment, it is temporary and will resolve after the swelling of surgery is completely gone. I'm glad that you got an appt. with the ophthalmologist so quickly, though I'm sure you feel like Monday will never come.

And he can see - it's become abundantly clear since then, and their tests established it. Some babies just come on much slower than others in the vision department. <BR/><BR/>Take care - I'll have Madelyn in my thoughts; I hope that this isn't as bad as it seems<BR/><BR/>- SonetkaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10631378.post-1139153011002142602006-02-05T10:23:00.000-05:002006-02-05T10:23:00.000-05:00I'm so sorry, Bee.

Mother F$%^*. What can I say? I am so frustrated because none of us here can help you. None of us can make it better. All I know is I have the most amazing visually impaired coworker and he ROCKS! Sure he can't drive but he uses amazing technology and accomplishes feats of dedication at work. There is almost no project that we can't give him. Computers have really made a difference in the workplace. Married for 25 years, 3 healthy children, great job and so much fun to be with...He's a great guy.So when you feel really really depressed - just think about the fact that she is alive and remember that a world of possibilities exist for her. Be brave. Cry a lot more. Then dust off your feet and be a mother who has a lovely little girl.Trixiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11941824999630457439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10631378.post-1139036648379316702006-02-04T02:04:00.000-05:002006-02-04T02:04:00.000-05:00Oh Bee.
