The Eyes Have It

I have spent the last few days recovering from cataract surgery on my right eye.

Everything went well and improvement should come soon. I needed no anesthesia, so it was somewhat disconcerting to be able to see the surgeon working on my other eye and to hear a machine nearby doing something.

The day of the surgery I was told not to focus too intently (in other words, don't read). I don't know how I would cope with blindness--reading is too much a part of my day. I found myself wandering about wondering what to do.

Thanks to all who sent prayers and offers of food.

God is good.
