For those that know me, I’ve been recently in and out of surgery for my left eye. I had gotten a cataract when I was in my college years and the lens implanted was now loose. Should have been a single day for 2 types of operation but the doctors had an issue with scheduling. And now Im headed to my third surgery, with the 3rd and 4th procedure at least on the same day.
It’s been a bitch really, the past 4 months. Sight is definitely the most important sense and we take it for granted sometime. I thought I could handle closing my eye for a prolonged time, but it’s a strain. Even driving, which used to be so effortless is now the worst part of my day. At least the comfort of the people around me who care has made this experience somewhat tolerable.
And yet, there are those people whom you thought would be with you at times like these ended up being just like everyone else. Only wanting to be in your life when it was convenient for them. When they needed you. And when you needed them, no where to be found.
You dont need both eyes to see that those types of people aren’t ones worth worrying about.
