Playing cards, scrabble, sodoku.

Playing cards, scrabble, sudoko, these are games that are often suggested to me for activities...

I know people mean well but thses are very hard for me to do because of my jumping vision, and a lot of eye movement makes me dizzy.

I can listen to books on tape, tv, visitors....

Opps, did I mention the hearing problem too?

Hearing problems.... After having the major brain bleed I couldn't stand any noise. Restaurants, movies, weddings, any occasion was very hard to take. I usually had to leave because of the noise being too loud.

Then, I developed Tinnitus. It is like having the tv on too loud and it is right in your ear. It is enough to drive you crazy. After I had my surgery, I was blessed with it going away. I think my body was letting me know how much pain it was in. What a relief.

I had ear plugs made for me so I can wear them in any noisy situation. They have given me much relief...

Opps, did I mention the hearing problem too?

Who knew blinking was such a big deal...

Who knew blinking was suck a big deal. After my surgery my left eye could not blink anymore.

Anyone care for a staring contest?

Because it does not blink I have to use eye drops every 2 hr.s and patch it too. This is to protect the cornea from drying out.

I plan to have surgery sometime this summer so they can put a gold weight in my eye lid to make my eye blink. Amazing!

I will still have to patch forever because my eyes have the lag and it makes me dizzy to use both eyes for very long.

I certainly don't have Betty Davis eyes, I have kaleidoscope eyes.....

Oh, when I mentioned I feel like an 80 year old...

oops, when I mentioned I feel like an 80 year old did I mention that I can't read a book anymore.

I can read a little but I get dizzy pretty quick because my eyes have a lag, they don't work together. Double Vision.

When I first heard the song called Double Vision when I was in my 20's I really liked it.

Not so much anymore...

Be careful about suggestions from doctors...

Be careful about suggestions from doctors.. Always get other opinions, blog with other people who have your issues, be patient with your issues because rushing through them is always a bad idea. Hunt on the internet, try alternative methods after researching them like acupuncture...

Don't jump. Contemplate first.

I'm like an 80 year old...

I'm like an 80 year old and I am 58. Can't drive at night, can only drive locally since I can only drive with one eye, I can't do many sports, I miss golf, hard to travel since I get tired easily, hard to walk for long because of my balance and I suffer from vestibular stimulation problems so I get nauseous, hard to turn my head, can't lay flat, hard to turn left, I could go on.
