I have gone all day today without my external eyelid weight. My eyeball is not red and it felt great having that metal off of my lid for a day. I was a little nervous going without it for fear that I would be out and would need it....kinda like a security blanket. I feel safe with it on and nervous without it but I did it. I'm almost certain that it is blinking slower than my good eye and I would guess that with time it will speed up. Today I had a "ME" day. Played Christmas music, sipped hot tea, read, played piano, sat with eyes closed.....(yes..I said eyes. Both were closed one without a weight~Yahooo.) and did absolutely nothing but listen to the rain fall outside. My house is dirty, my leaves need raked, clothes need washed, license about to expire.....yep. Did none of it.
There is LOTS of rest for the weary.
Angie.....blinking for the moment.
this has nothing to do with my eye but I had bought a sign to put outside when my children were playing because we live in the city with lots of traffic and the sign reads...SLOW! Kids At Play. My son Rivers had tears in his eyes and said.....Mom why did you buy a sign like that? I said what honey? He said....you bought a sign that says we're slow and we are not slow kids. (slow=dumb)
