I truly hope that all goes well with your eyes, i shall keep you in my
prayers and wish you the best of all luck with your sight, keep on keeping
on and dont give up what you love becuz of one simple problem, you can do
anything you set your mind to and i hope that this little obstacale will not
prevent you from any love or passion you have. I recently had a terrible
auto accident, i flipped my car over, and then rolled it between 2 or 3
times, it landed on the passenger side, i had 3 friends with me, and yes
were all ok, not even a scratch, but hey if i can get threw that, and come
out ok (thanks again God) i think you can get through this just fine ^_^. "I
can do all things threw Christ who gives me strength" Phillipiens 4:13
Peace out my furry bretheren ^_^
