Happy Birthday Alice!!! Alice is our friend in Kokomo, Indiana...
The cataract surgery went well. They put me asleep for a short period of time so they could deaden my eye. I was awake for the surgery. Right after the surgery they put a patch over my eye. I ask for the patch because I am bad about rubbing my eyes. With this surgery I had no pain or burning like I had with the first one. I didn’t starve like I was so afraid I would after missing two meals. As soon as the surgery was over with they gave me graham crackers and juice… I came home and rested the rest of the day… I had to go back to see Dr. Hester at 9:45 this morning for a follow up. Everything was fine. I will go back to see him in a week. Dave keeps busy putting two different drops in my eye four times a day. I didn’t notice until I had already left the doctor’s office that I had a black eye. I never had that with the first one… We stopped by a green house on our way home and got tomato, bell pepper, cabbage, broccoli, eggplant, and cucumber plants. Also got some Geranium and Petunia plants… I help Dave put the flowers in pots, took care of the houseplants, fixed supper, and cleaned the kitchen… The Schwan man came and we are all set for food for a while… I have felt really good today… Goodnight All Keeping The Faith In Oklahoma
