" Hi JackC,

Have you been to see an eye specialist? They can do extensive testing on your eyes to check the inside the eye.

I had to wait for a little over a year to find out what was wrong with my eyes, it is a scarey thing. You don't realize how much you depend on your eyes, just for the little things. "

" HEY JackC,
I ECHO WHAT dc WROTE GET TO A SPECIALIST AND IF THEY CAN'T FIND OUT WHAT IS GOING ON, GO TO ANOTHER ONE.

I WENT FIRST TO AN OPHTHALMOLOGIST THEN TO A NEUROLOGIST THEN TO AN NEURO-OPHTHALMOLOGIST BEFORE I GOT THE ANSWER.

BEST OF LUCK TO YOU! "

" Grammy, I know you are not asking for pity. It is hard and there are places where you can't get a bus or dial a ride. I know. I am a widow and have very little vision left. It is not easy and many things I simply don't do. In my town even with a white cane there are many streets I can't cross. I care what you are going through. You are in my prayers. Let us know how you are doing. "
