All Better

Well I am feeling better. Not 100% but close. I did have my drs. apt on Thusday which had disappointing results. She told me that my toe issues don 't have anything to do with my knee, which I know in my gut that she is wrong about but she seemed pretty sure of herself. She wants me to try insloes in my shoes first before she sends me to a pediestrist. So I will stop tomorrow and pick some up and see if they help or not we will see. If they do great, I will be happy that it will be that easy; however I do have my doubts that it will be that easy.

I am excited for tomorrow. I have a apt with a corrective eye surgery specialist tomorrow for a consulation on correcting my eyesight. I have been told by my eye dr that I am not a good canadate fot lasic surgery due to the shape of my eyes in compraison to the amount they would need to reshape them to correct my blind ass eyes LOL! However the FDA has recently approved a procedure called ICL (internal Corrective Lens). Basically it is a permanet contact lens that they insert on top of the lens inside of your eye. The procedure is more invasive that lasic however not real risky it is simular to cateric surgery. This procedure would correct my vision from 20/900 to 20/20 (yes I am that blind). I don;t remember what it is like not having to depend on glasses on contacts (I have depended on the since I was 6). I am very excited to see what the drs. say tomorrow, however this procedure is more expencive than lasik, and with it considered a cosmetic surgery insurance doesn't cover it. So we are still discussing if it can be done financially or not on our end right now or if it will have to be put off for a later time in my life.

I am also excited to start walking again even if it looks like it will have to be at the gym, since it has rained all day here today. I am excited to restart my training for the 1/2 marathon.

I have also decided to start working on other parts of my life as well on this journey to rediscover myself, more to come on that end right now I am loggin off ot spend so time with the hubby.
