I just watched your first video. Something weird happened. Let me start from the top. Today I woke up with a call from my mom and she was crying....she can no longer see. Like nothing, zip, zero. Mom has stage 4 bone cancer and has been on a million meds since march of 2012. Supposedly one of those meds caused an adverse reaction on her vision. Since May of 2012....it's been getting worst and today...she can no longer see.

Watching your video....your dad not being able to see, and my mom not being able to see. It's like the universe let us here lol

I hope your dad is ok, you said he's getting it fixed. My mom's case is soooo severe, surgery is the goal but her condition has to be stable for 2 more months. Her eye pressure was hovering around 45-50 for months, seems to be holding steady at a normal 19-25 now so hopefully she can have surgery.

I can't wait to watch the rest of your vids.

My dad had to keep his diabetes under control and loose a certain amount of weight for three months before they did the first eye. He was so determined, I don't blame him; that he did it. He went in and got the first eye fixed, then just recently had the second eye fixed. Listening to him talk about the things he sees is amazing!

I'm sorry to hear about your mom. It's scary stuff! I will keep your mom in my prayers.

See, this is why I started the videos. :)

I was thinking about starting a "video journal" on YouTube....I viewed a couple and they were pretty cool. Hmmm there's an idea.

That'll be great....I'll follow you!

I'm new to this site. I'm getting excited and nervous because I've completed my 6 months requirement for BCBS. Waiting for my paperwork to come from the nutritionist and referral to BCBS for the surgeon. Does anyone know how long it takes? Anxiously waiting...

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
