My optometrist appointment was last Thursday. I think it has taken until today, right now, to fully sink in. That horrible doctor was correct! I think I’m a long way from being blind but Dr. Harris did not change my prescription because he wants me to be able to see up close and if he strengthens my prescription, I would lose my nearsighted ability. He says that that is better in my situation then seeing far away.
I think that he is correct and as I was wiping the tears from my eyes with my left sleeve, because it is quite difficult not to be able to see clearly even with contacts or glasses. I thought of this song and I saw myself and either my cousin, Melissa, my cousinT, Shannon, or my friend, Heather growing up In the backseat of my Mom’s station wagon singing along with this song.
I just searched it on YouTube and had to listen to it just before I wrote this blog post and I still remember the words and I could see myself in the backseat of that station wagon, singing!
