She has to go in for injections in the eye for three months then another evaluation. She may need the injections for the rest of her life they can’t say yet. It was a good clinic experience over all. Mum was an emergency appointment so I thought we’d have to be waiting for a long time. But no. All the appointments were on time and. The doctor was very nice. A female dr. She asked her nurse to go get her a mask with a clear section so I could see her lips. And went though it all again with me since I care for mum. That was really nice. I see why they have a good reputation and are listed as number one in USA.

There you are!


Ohhh, I am SO glad they caught the macular degeneration early. Whew. That's huge. Sounds like it all went really smoothly. Being able to read the doctor's lips must have made everything easier for you - less stress = very good. Having an empathetic doctor and nursing staff makes all the difference in the world. Through all the years I cared for my mom most of her doctors were kind, and just good folks. Made it that much less strenuous for both me and my mom.

btw- yes, I do deserve that free blanket after all the big hassle Amazon, then UPS have put me through. Sheesh. Phone calls, delivered to wrong address, grr. The blanket is finally due to arrive tomorrow!
