Hey guys, we just got home from the hospital. Everything went great. The surgeon told us the surgery couldn't have gone any more perfect than it did. They were able to remove the cataract and replace the lens without any problems. We were told it would take about 6 weeks for her eyes to syncronize. Until then, her eyes will be basically moving independently of each other. The doctor told us in a couple of weeks she should be able to see fine again. Last night was pretty rough. Chloe woke up every hour and scream then fall right back asleep. Needless to say, my wife and I didn't sleep at all. She had a post-op check this morning, and they said everything looked really good. So now we start the once a week check-ups again for at least 6 weeks, but it will all be worth it for her vision. Thanks for everything guys.
If I can figure out how to get the videos from my cell phone to my computer, I will show ya the results of the "Goofy Juice" they gave her. I don't know what it was. They just called it Goofy Juice. She was hilarious.

Ok got the video from my cell phone figured out. This is a short clip of what she was doing for about 30 mins. after she was given the "Goofy Juice".

That IS GREAT,,AND that "GOOFY" Juice is some good stuff,,My 17 y/o Boy broke his leg the LAST DAY of school when he was 12,,well they gave him the "goofy" juice and about 30 Minutes later I caught him stareing at his sheets
I just figured he was nervous because it was about time for them to come get him for surgery
I asked him,,,whats the matter buddy,,why are ya staring at your sheet?,,,he said nothing is the matter,,but I am watching "the race" :shrug: :confused: :confused: :confused: I said,what race,,he said the turtle race and pointed at his foot,,then said I hope the BLUE TURTLE with the racing stripes wins and started laughing,,I laughed to and said to the Nurse,,CAN I GET SOME OF THAT STUFF ??? and real Bitchy she snapped,,NO !!!
it HAS to be some GOOD STUFF !!!
Brian,,take a nap at the station IF YOU CAN and I am sure things will be GREAT with your little girl :congrats: :biggrin:
