Today has been a triumphant day in my household. First I hauled ass across the bridge and did not panic. I could have gotten a speeding ticket, but oh well. Secondly my husbands new contacts came in finally.
When the new Dr checked his vision, he was 20/70 in one eye and 20/50 in the other and at best both was 20/40. So today you can only imagine the response when he read 2 letters out of the 20/20 line. I can not tell you the joy I have felt all day. We came back and picked up the girls to take Jellybean out to celebrate her birthday. He drove back. FROM. TOWN. (big town). We just took a test run to the store to see how bad the glares and halos were from the car lights.. he said they are still there, but not as prominent as before.
The Dr was so elated he wanted to jump out of his chair. He said there’s no way hubby could read anything from the 20/20 and he proved him wrong. YAY!!
I was so emotional coming home I started to cry (bad thing to do while driving and driving in the rain). For almost 14 years I have seen him struggle and get so down. Today I seen a new man emerge. One full of confidence ready to face the world again. I am just tearing up just writing this. You have no idea how happy I am at this moment.
