Lisa has been up early every day since the last post. Talking my ear off, trying to organize piles of newly found unattended mail, walking down to the office to work for a couple of hours on things that are only on her office computer, doing a workout in which she tried to try to hit all of her muscle groups, going for walks in the neighborhood with her parents. These once seemed like small things, but not today. Today they kind of make your vision cloudy for a second or two. For me, it’s reminiscent of watching the stadium lights come on… not all at once because it would blow a circuit, but one bright light firing up at a time. Lisa is doing great! She is brighter every day. We are still waiting for some key lights to switch on; but patience, my son! One day at a time! Not sure why, but lately I’ve had a bit of a short fuse. Only for the last several years though. But now all of a sudden when I get all frustrated and offended and grumpy, Lisa notices it. And it matters to her. So I guess you could say my stadium lights are starting to turn on too. Lisa’s appointment with the neuro-ophthalmologist is now scheduled for next Tuesday morning. She has corrected herself in having said that her vision was Salvador Dali-esque. She says it is actually cubist. Big difference! The Dali-esque thing would just be weird. The volunteer art teacher was quick to excuse her own lapse, citing that same old “squished brain expansion mode” excuse that everybody uses. So all in all she’s doing really great. The wonky vision thing will keep her from driving until it rectifies. If you want to target your prayers please ask for that to resolve quickly on its own. That Lisa will require no more surgeries or invasions or drugs to get her normal vision back. And that she will stay on her current trajectory toward the person she truly is. Thank you God!
