...I sure hope her surgery goes well...Others tell me it's a world of difference after it's done...

...I'm going to replace the light/fan in the game room with another chandelier...I did a little pre-prep on the chandelier last night so it will go a little easier today than yesterday...I hope!...

...also, a trip to Lowes and Costco is in the wings...

Patients I've taken care off regretted on why they didn't do it soon enough. I does make a big difference.

Just have to keep the eye cover on at night after the procedure to make sure she don't accidentally rub on her eye when she's sleeping.

Goodluck Jan!

I got out bid on the chicken auction again.  I've found another place I might buy from.  I've contacted them and asked for more info, same as I do when I am buying special expensive fish.

I have 2 dogs at 10 and another at noon which means a trip to the feed store in the next few days.

I'm not sure...we have a supplemental Insurance that pays all the rest......Medicare only takes care of about 80%....but check that....

I think you're right on the 20%.

Medicare 80%, supplement 20%.  Also covers the eyedrops.  When Bill had his done, the first thing he noticed was how bright white clouds are.  He had only seen tan clouds for years.  It is a wonderful surgery to have. I will need it in a few years the eye Dr. tells me.  Good wishes to Jan!
