20170811-F: DriveAbility (Satisfied and Time to Move Forward)
The following table indicates our
DriveAbility. One of Doctor Rol’s
strengths is that after seeing him he lets us carry the paperwork about the
encounter to the front desk. No-one
seems to mind that we go through page by page.
The information enclosed is quite insightful. One again probably our greatest risk factor
for eye meltdown was that our Left had had recent Cataract Surgery. Note on 20170717 Blood Sugar Level @ 815am =
108. We do not know the reference
range. Let us just say it is slightly
high. We are making some behavioral and
nutritional changes to address it now.
There was a notation in the exam room regarding PQRI and PQRS. Doctor notes that: “You must have something
on your side”. I.e. our HealAbility is
high. The bubble size is down to that of
a ball-bearing. Doctor says the image
result is “Fantastic”.

20170808-TU: Day-48 - Coordination Check
CCCHC scheduling is not coordinated with OC Ophthalmology. In August 8, 2016 we had CCCHC print us a
copy of our “Appointment Card”. No appointments were listed exempt for the
on-site CCCHC appointments.
20170807-M @ 1230: Day-46 – Closing This Event
On Thursday August 3rd,
2017 we saw Doctor Rol for a post-operative checkup. We were tested: Our left eye pressure was
20mmHg. Our visual acuity was: 20/20
(Right) and 20/25 (Lt). Our left eye
improved since our last exam (Left = 20/40).
Our retina for both eyes was scanned.
Doctor indicates our Left has near completely reorganized. We to Doctor Rol we were “satisfied”. There are a couple of issues with the left
eye: It sees images as smaller thus further away than they really are. The left sees things a bit dimmer that the
better right eye. We are schedule an
exam in 1 month. For the most part we
can see the laptop screen and see to drive again. Doctor approved us to go back to our
Yoga/Pilates class. He said take it
easy.

20170703-W: Day-41 – Begin Closure
Tomorrow we have and appointment with Dr. Rol at 345pm. We intend to take the bus because our eye is
very likely to be dilated. We have been
working to see if our program Brand New Day can help us with transportation in
the future. We are both satisfied
because using glasses we see our laptop screen and are able to drive the
car. We have yet to drive at night. Since our last appointment our vision has not
changed much. We hope the Doctor Rol releases
us to be physical again.

on the slow healing process. During the

indicates how we self scored. The
assessment tool is classified as Common Sense (LAW1). When we injured our eye in 1978 after the
intraocular blood cleared up we felt confident and drove. It took until 1983 (5 years) for our eye to
heal from skittishness.

Yesterday we saw our surgical ophthalmologist
Dr. Rol. Doctor Rol repaired our left
eye on 20170628-W: As we stated in Thursday entry he said we were doing
“fantastic”. He pointed out a couple of
our strengths: Our age (still young) and that we did not suffer diabetes. He completely disregarded one of our major
weaknesses. In the top five of our
weaknesses is that we are a cigarette smoker.
Why point it out unless you are prepared to solve it for us. Using our Quick Score Method (QSM) we award
Dr. Rol five (5) stars. We would eagerly
refer any friend or relative to him for services and care. Brand New Day really has a wonderful
Retinologist on board. He still wishes
us to focus on the treatment plan and therapy.
For next week we really have to measure what we commit to. Thank you again Dr. Rol.
20170706-TH: Day-14 – Key Event – Crucial Follow Up
Our appointment was at 11AM in
the Garden Grove Facilities. After two
tests by his technologists and one by himself Doctor Rol declared “Really
fantastic and great”. He says remain
guarded the way you have been. He
decreased the number of head tilt procedures to four (4) per day. He says to still sleep on my right
side. He listened as we read our
narrative about Day-13. He said
eloquent and put it to print. We took this as an approval. In a manner this and the other updates
qualify and paraprofessional activates. Once again, we must sustain a realistic
level of guardedness. He instructed to
finish up the drops he had prescribed us.
Yesterday Brand New Day sent us a second approval about this case. It was for Doctor Taban who we saw over one
(1) week ago. We shared the results
with our oldest sister (supporter). She
says: “That’s good news!” Last we will
visit our Portal to see if there are any updates.

20170705-W: Day-13 New Hopes – Objectives & Narrative – Practicing Paraprofessional
20170705-W: Day-13 New Hopes – Objectives & Narrative – Practicing Paraprofessional
We held this section over on day so we could share it in
person with Doctor Rol. After reviewing
it he said that the text that follows is very “eloquent” and we might “publish”
it. We woke in better spirits this
morning largely due to a good night’s sleep.
The musculoskeletal pain we accrued early on in treatment is now absent. Vanishing Point Test (VPT): We call the
phenomena about the differing sizes of the same object registered in each eye
our VPT. It matters because we think
that the conflicting Vanishing Points make it difficult to drive. We have been getting substantial coaching from
our friend Gloria Shanks. At this
moment we pass the laptop test. After
an initial gain in our ability to focus things remain the same. Right eye is better with glasses. Left eye is better without glasses. There is not real pain other than
emotional. Tomorrow, July 6, we have
two appointments: The first with our
lab and the second with Doctor Rol.
There are fewer floaters this morning. The bubble has two nodes. Status is stable. Spirit: We hope that Mr. Give It Back helps us out
persistently. We really feel here at
Mentalations Solutions Group (MSG) there is an un-met need for, those with
lived experience about retinal detachment populate, a Warm-line to help others
and us with doubt and fear. Coping: To
cope with this crisis we have been writing about daily experience and struggles
with this key event. All of our supporters
in each own manner have helped up out.
The biggest help was a ride home from surgery that Mel Shanks provided.
The most problematic person was a roommate that kept us up from sleeping a
couple of nights ago. Again, last night
was better. We are re-upping our Luck.
End 20170705W: Day-13 Record.
