Things went today just as we expected. Karen picked us up at 7:20 this morning and we drive to San Diego in rush hour traffic. Fortunately she had allowed enough time to get us there just at 8:30, in time to get into see the doctor at 8:45. There were people working on the road in front of the offices, but Karen was able to get us there where we could get out and go through the parking garage, and into the building. Chris got in to see the assistant, who checked and dilated his eyes, and the doctor saw him right afterward. Dr. Dick put several different things in his eyes, that hurt, and when Chris would move his eyes from looking straight up, because each thing hurt, he told him to look straight up. So, I knew it was hurting him, and that made me feel hurt, too, out of sympathy.
When the doctor was through doing this, he gave us a prescription to have filled at the pharmacy, and said he should come back every month for more treatments. We picked up the medicine at the pharmacy, and then left to drive back here. Karen dropped us off and went home, where the cat was to greet her. Terry had gone up to the house in Arroyo Grande for four days, to take some of his things and arrange them there.
We had a rest, and then went to dinner. The eye was still sore from the treatments, but Chris handled it well. We sat with friends, and he talked with them and ate a good fruit salad . So, he is handling the day, and the realization that he will keep the sight in this eye for a while yet.
