skater needs a miracle that she will be able to get back the eyesight in this one eye.

Iceskater, may your prayers be answered with this surgery. I hope and pray your eyes are as good as new after your recovery time.
I hope you have yourself set-up for great care. Might needs some extra meds to give you the patience to endure this two weeks of recovery. And patience, my dear.
Take care of you!
Pam

I spoke to her this afternoon. She is in pain , and eye swollen, but had her post-op appointment and could actually see the light when the Dr shined it into her eye. :-)
She couldnt talk long because she had to go back and lay face down.
Keep the well wishes coming for her speady recovery :-)

I havent heard anything. Last I spoke to her she said she would update me daily, but Im thinking that she is probably just resting face down.
I worked with a guy who had this surgery, and he had to lay on his couch most of the time.
Dont feel bad Betty- i also have been to ill to run to the post office.
I did make it out today for blood work, and was able to mail something off to her.

Just wanted to thank everyone for thoughts and prayers. Surgery took a lot out of me. I can see light in the eye now but it is very blurry and not in focus. Thanks to all again!!!!!
