Welcome back Jean!

Nate

So glad you are back & everything went well. It is good it all happened while your daylilies were asleep :) I bet you will really enjoy your garden this year.

Welcome back, Jean! You are just in time to enjoy watching your garden awaken. So glad things are going well. Ann

Best of luck with your eyes. I've been there and done that, but it was one eye at a time, with a couple of years between the lens replacements. It's been a good 20 years since the first eye was done, and my eyes are fine. I use reading glasses for close work, but that's all.

Jean, I just thought the caps were because you were so excited to be able to see well again and be back on the forum...welcome back!

Glad to hear from you, Jean! And best wishes!

Thank you all so much. yes I was excited to be back and back on the forum, maybe that's why I didn't notice I had caps on till I was ready to sign my name, then I realized I was using caps..I got back to some weeds, and today was working on pulling up weeds. can't do much at a time, because of age and severe back problems, but,I will get it done.Had a birthday while I was gone and got another year older.Can't hardly wait to see daylily blooms again.I'm sure they will look even better now,that I can see better(and no glasses right now) I am hoping I wont have to wear glasses no more.but, i'll wait and see.
Take care, every one,

jean

Thank you,Julia. yes, its good to be back home. was staying with a daughter so she could put drops in my eyes and see that all was going good with them,
take care,, jean

Welcome back, Jean!

FarawayFarmer , thank you for the response and good wishes. I had both eyes done with a week in between,, I was put to sleep for both surgeries because I have such severe back problems and Dr said I had to be very still and not move a muscle,He knew that wasn't possible with my bad back,and also bad arthuritis in my neck and shoulders.I had a very bad time trying to be still during the eye test the dr done him self.There was I believe 4 ladies that each done a test on my eyes, but the last one he done him self as it was very important it had to be perfect.I am so glad its over and I can see good now.Can't wait to see the daylily blooms now.

Thank you , CHRIS,am so glad to be back and not wearing glasses right now. am hoping they are a thing of the past.
take care,

jean

Great to see you are back with us. Pretty scary story about how serious your eyesight had gotten. You were truly blessed to have such fine doctors taking care of it for you.....Welcome back.....Maryl

maryL. yes, I have been truly blessed that the dr here found my problem and sent me to the very best eye surgeon in the state. and the surgeon follows up to make sure everything gos right.I kept telling my daughter that I am being drowned in eye drops,and I have always hated putting drops in my eyes, but really not fussing about the drops,asI know the dr. knows more then me about it.just be glad when these bottles are empty.
take care now,, jean

Hi Jean,
I haven't been on the forum since the fall myself so I didn't know that you'd had eye problems, but I'm so glad to hear that everything went well and you are on the road to recovery and will be ready to enjoy bloom season.
