...in an effort to raise some of the funds I'm gonna need to pay a
few doctors. My recent visit to the Rand Eye Institute (last week)
was not as good as I'd hoped. Full details will be available on the
next Skunkworks site update (tomorrow night), but, suffice to say,
the left eye cannot be saved. Aside from, as the doctor
said, "massive retinal scarring", there's also a cataract in that
eye, but an operation to remove said cataract would only aggrevate
the retinopathy in that eye. So it's a catch-22 situation. The
right eye is pretty okay, though it does need a little work.
I've still got to get some bloodwork done, and I've got a visit
with a retina specialist on Thursday, so hopefully he can offer some
suggestions or advice.
All that aside, I'll be doing a minor update on the BTT site, as
well as the Skunkworks site, tomorrow night. I've been working on
some various sketches, and have been trying to get back to doing
some inking (difficult with only partial use of one eye). I'll have
some art to post within the next few days, though.
Oh yeah, and I think the Ivory vs. Lori poll should be closed at
the end of this month, with the winning girl getting a special
picture drawn of her. So go ahead and vote! Unlike American
politics, your vote really does count here! And it'll give me
something really twisted to draw, too... >;P
Talk to you all tomorrow night! I've got a job interview tomorrow
morning, so I've got to get some beauty sleep...
