Piece of Cake




Cataract Schmateract




Didn't feel a thi  Excruciating pain because, in a G. Gordon Liddy  moment I faced my fear and refused all pain meds.  One nurse yelled, "This is the bravest patient we've ever had."  I wanted to do the cutting myself but the surgeon said it wasn't allowed by my insurance,  Pussies,

Piece of cake. Now where's that bear I'm supposed to rape?

Pain? Ha! Wait 'till you pull that tape off!

G. Gordon Liddy was an idiot; whenever someone offers you pain meds, take 'em! (Take it from someone that gets the whibblies from needles and knives.)

Thank goodness the surgery was a success, and you can see again.

Your posts will be a lot better now, right?

"Looking good Rodge" will have an all new meaning from this day forth. Congrat's and thank the Lord.

p.s.
No meds because MoSup was holding your hand, right?

I sneer not, 'cause while the risk is small it is still there.

No, it's frigg'n John Wayne. I thought he was dead.

Again with the no roll-over. Schidt.

Seriously, good news. You will enjoy the new eye. Are they doing both?

When do you get the second one done? For me it was a few months.

HOPE you took home some pain pills!

I assume for that price you got the x-ray vision upgrade?

Good to know you don't have pain and so glad that all went well.

But must admit, of all the surgeries I've had none of them was ever painless.

My first thought was Orson Bean.

Nudge, nudge, wink, wink.

But congrats on the successful repair.

After being diagnosed with cataracts forming in both eyes last fall, I had the lens in both eyes replaced. Thursday, I will go back to get my new glasses. The procedure both times as completely painless and took approximately 45 minutes from the time we went into the eye clinic to when we left. It costs just under $5000.00 per eye, mostly paid for by our insurance. We had a $200.00 co-pay. It was damn sure well worth it.
