Good Evening Everybody,<br /><br />Rose - glad to hear your son is doing a little better.  Getting out of bed and going to work <b>is</b> a good start.  <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":smile:" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> good you got to go shopping.<br /><br />Debbie - glad to hear you got good news from you podiatrist.  just be sure and take care of those &quot;puppies&quot;.<br /><br />My mother&#39;s appt. didn&#39;t go very well.  The cataract is very bad. There is a danger of removing it and losing what vision she has in her right eye.  She is basically blind in her left eye. But at some point the cataract will have to be removed because it is  starting to interfere with the other doctor&#39;s ability to treat her Macular Degeneration. When the Doctor cannot &quot;see&quot; through the cataract to her Macular, then he can&#39;t do anything to help slow down the progress.  At that point the cataract will have to be removed.<br />On a happier note, Rose behaved very well...I had her some coloring books and colors and books...even her Nintendo but she never played it.  There is a nurse that works there that we know and when I needed to talk to the Dr. she came and got Rose so I could talk and that worked out well.<br /><br />have a good evening everyone
