Nobody but NOBODY could possibly be more afraid of having anything touching their eyeball than I am. I couldn't even put eye drops in my eyes!
I tried contact lenses.. ONCE. and just freaked out !!!

So. That said. cataract surgery is nothing.. a piece of cake.

My experience was this-- Being prepped- a nurse put some 'numbing drops' in the eye that was going to have the surgery )I did both eyes, a couple weeks apart.) And a small IV was put in my arm for the anestheeeseeologist.

So I was wheeled into the 'operating room.' This was a small local but very good hospital.
They put some type of inverted lampshade' over my face-- like that thing the dentist puts over your mouth-- simple... Head was GENTLY strapped to the table...almost un-noticable.

Anesteegoilgist guy comes in ( I knew him from when I had a cancerous tumor operated on several years before-- but I digress LOL)

I guess he started the juice flowing cause next thing I knew the opthamoloiggister said 'Don't move." Oh right !! Sure. I'm going to sneeze just when you start...It was, of course a joke. I HOPE it was a joke. Couldn't see anything except frosty white, then a multi-colored kalaidascope.

That was it. You will not see or feel a thing. Took the doc all but maybe 2 minutes.. He does about 15 every MOnday and Wed, !!!

After he checked me in the "recovery room" Rather the recovery hallway, I went home.

So chill....

Just hope you don;t get Bell's Palsy..
(Actually, when I noticed then next morning the right side of my face didn't move right. I though I might be having a stroke.!! So there is that to worry about also..

Went right to my PCP. He immediately ordered an MRI (Shit, not another one of those..I have a little claustrophobia and had 2 of those when the lymphoma was discovered in my back...

OK I'll shut up.

I'm fine, by the way...
And you will B 2.

Last edited Sun Jan 28, 2018, 01:58 PM - Edit history (1)

He is fat and ugly, and his ugly fatness should be mocked any time he is discussed, because he is disgusting.

Despite the eager scolding by high-minded, finger-wagging Progressives, the ugly fatness of Trump, and the mockery of that fat ugliness, is no commentary on anyone but fat and ugly Trump himself. When I mock the fat and ugly Trump, I am not speaking of anyone else, and it is false to infer that my comments about ugly fat Trump have anything to do with non-Trump people who struggle with issues of weight or appearance.

Trump has spent decades mocking people for their weight and appearance--including literal beauty queens--while he himself sets new standards for bloated hideousness. His vile hypocrisy makes him a fair and legitimate target for insults about his huge and ugly fatness.

I just don't think DU should be about...
What you think DU should be about is not relevant in this regard, because Trump is a fat, ugly monstrosity who should be mocked both for the daily disaster he's inflicting upon the world, and for his grotesquely ugly fatness.

emanates from within. Honestly, her physical appearance on its own is not ugly or unattractive. Her “looks” are average, normal, everyday. Her “ugliness” comes from the hateful, haughty, arrogant mean-ness that fills her. Imagine that same face with an open, warm, genuine smile - she’d be attractive with her big dark eyes. My point is, we’re not really making fun of her looks, we’re making fun of the ugliness of her soul that twists her face into the mess that it is.

Sun Jan 28, 2018, 07:15 PM

She had the misfortune to inherit her father's body-type and propensity to weight gain. She's plain of face. Her wardrobe choices are startlingly unflattering. None of that is worth commenting on.

I have known, admired, and loved as friends many such "plain" women, whose inner light and intelligence and kindness shine through. Their smiles are open and genuine. They look beautiful because they really are. I count myself lucky to have them as friends.

But Sarah Huckabee Sanders? She lies. Her words drip with contempt. She contorts her face to show her anger and contempt. I know she has kids -- what a scary mommy she must be. She has made herself ugly.

And frankly, the hypocrisy displayed at DU is by those trying to shut the rest of us up for calling this woman what she is. To them I say: not everything is about you and your self-loathing. Really.

People's actual lives are on the line.

This is a place to vent, and this woman deserves nearly everything that's thrown at her. The rest can be excused, because of the extraordinary incitement to outrage coming daily from this heinous White House.

She is merely a walking avatar for the effects of habitual lying and its costs on your subconscious mind and how those effects manifest themselves in the real world. I am just amazed that Trump hasn't flipped his shit about how her deteriorating physical appearance reflects badly on his sense of needing to be surrounded by "a beautiful piece of ass"....she definitely aint THAT.

I just wonder if she has ulcers and other maladies that have become worse since she began lying for a living full time...
