My daughter, Amy... she is such a strong woman not only physically and mentally but emotionally and spiritually as well. She gets that from her Dad for sure. She has suffered with a serious eye condition in her GOOD eye for 5 weeks. She has been in pain a lot of that time, has had numerous doctor appointments, and yet has carried on full-steam ahead as wife and mom and even started her new "principal" job on Monday.
She did have her laser procedure done this afternoon at 3:00 p.m. today. The doctor lasered 4 holes into her iris so that the fluid can move around and do whatever that fluid is supposed to do so that her eye pressure doesn't build up and cause glaucoma. She does have a cataract in that eye but that will be dealt with farther down the road. Her pupil is permanently stuck to her lens, but that will be taken care with a lens replacement as stated above. After her procedure today, she returned to work and then enjoyed her son Jarrett's 14th birthday dinner before we all went to church this evening. (That is her 8-year-old Josh in the picture above.)
I wanted to post this picture so that everyone can SEE that Amy is doing well. She is extremely tired but hopefully a few good nights of deep rest will help with that. We pray that she gets a good post-op report at 8:10 in the morning. Thank you for your prayers today. They were felt by Amy and Brian and by her Dad and me as well. God is so good and we trust that His will is being accomplished in Amy's arthritis situation ~~ which causes this iritis condition. Thanks for caring!! ~~Mama Susan
