Eyes tired and oh well

Braces, asthma respirators, and now lens????

You can always try to be like this awesome guy. Amazing.

I assume you mean you have to wear lenses? Without any further nasty stuff, like slowly losing all sight or some weird stuff? That's really not such a big deal! I'm helpless without them, and perfectly fine with them.

And braces, twice. Mate, that means that your parents can afford good dental care.

Alas, the asthma is a real drag. Pity, and I'm sorry for you. As to the rest, try to cheer up a bit. Neither are the end of the world. You're not falling apart. You have some inconveniences. Old people fall apart. Me, for example. Last year I got a new hip, and the year before, when I turned 84, I got this nasty bowel disease and currently I've got these prostrate problems and

Today we can, tomorrow we don't know. That are the things in Argentina, you never know what will happen.

CmacQ, I don't want to sound stupid, but what was that post?

Not at all. It was just commentary about the vide provided by the 6th Louis. One learns something new every day.

Maybe I misunderstood you, but, if you have eye problem, then spectacles would do as well as lens and stuff..........ofcourse eye surgery is always an option but it's too drastic a step to take........

If its any consolation i have been trying to get to sleep since about 6am (its 13.40 now) and have been kept up by very painful toothache, know that i have finally got some painkillers in me and the pains dying down i want to goto sleep but i have a dentist appointment at 16.00, only a check up though i will have to wait longer before something is done, at this moment i think i would happily have the offending tooth/teeth removed...

That brings up bad memories. That happened to me once, but when I woke up after finally getting to sleept, there were a huge white bubble of Pus covering my whole lower right gums. Basically, one of my teeth had a minute hole that allowed bacteria to get in, but not pus to get out so it had to go out through my gums. Had to get a root canal done on that tooth too.....bad memories....

Sounds well nasty, and quite possibly something that could happen to me which is why im glad i have got around to booking that dentist appoitment, im a bit of an insomniac anyway so the toothache just made it twice as bad getting to sleep...

I have heard root canals are very painful (though i remain hopeful that my mum is just a wuss when it comes to pain) and i think ill probably be having one booked after my appointment today...
