Life is good. Both of my eyes have been operated on and my vision is great. It takes about four weeks to totally heal but I can already see SO much better than previously. I should be able to drive by next week which will totally improve my quality of life. I can hardly wait to get my first rental car. I will still need rides to doctor's appointments, grocery shopping, and chemo treatments but will have the freedom to rent a car. My latest news is that my sister Nancy, my mother and I are buying a house and will live together in a gated community on Lake Tallavana in Havana, Florida in the northwest part of the state. It is three bedrooms, two bathrooms with a screened porch and a pier leading to the lake. I am so very excited. We hope to settle mid October, do some repairs, and have mother move from Ohio the beginning of November, along with Nancy. I plan to move the beginning of December. We know we face challenges but this should be good for all of us. So many good things are happening. Miss you all.
