Cataract removal last Friday. I see the surgeon again tomorrow and will then have arrangements for the other eye to be done early next year. As well as removing the cataract, a permanent artificial lens to correct longsightedness was inserted, so when the other eye is done I'll only need glasses for closeup work for the first time in 40 years.
Amazing eh, and how luck am I to live in a country with one of those dreaded communistic public health systems? As I'm on government benefits, none of this will cost me one cent! Also amazing: the corrective lenses come all the way to Australia from Fort Worth Texas
My father had that a few years ago, he's super pleased with the results.
You know I was actually asking out of genuine concern for your welfare. So I'm not interested in the sarcastic political responses. I honestly hope it goes well. I think bringing politics into it is rather a cheap shot though.
Thanks! Honestly, I pray for people, but some people here make a big stink about how they believe there's no god when all one wants to do is say, "hey I wish you well in your endeavor and or crisis." I do know some cool people who are atheists on here, but there are too few.
Is Islam a danger to the US?
