One-eyed chick

Sorry for being absent for a while, I've had a lot to take care of both at home and at work, various things that accumulated during the summer. Then a new medical problem has occured....as if I didn't have enough of them already…😏

Got a major bleed in the left eye and vitreous detachment. The doctor can't say why this happened, and I have to return every two weeks for follow-up. The bleeding has decreased a little, but if it hasn't stopped after three months, surgery may be required, which I want to avoid as it entails certain risks.

I've been working full-time in the meantime, but since I'm sitting staring into a computer screen the whole day, I have to pause often so as not to strain the eye and also to rest the healthy eye. So I've had to skip my blogging and my social media for a while because of this.

It's incredibly difficult to have a "blood curtain" in the eye and in the middle of the field of vision, especially when you have poor balance due to neuropathy in the legs and feet and really have to watch where you put your feet in the terrain in this snowy and icy season. Therefore, I've tried to stay indoors as much as possible. Watching TV is also hard, but goes quite decently right now at least for a little while.

So as I said, since my eyes are so tired after a day's work, blogging has had to rest in the evenings, but the better it heals, the easier it will be to get started here again.

Hope you are well, and like me, looking forward to Christmas.
