New news news

Hi everyone! Sorry I wasn't very here lately. Things kept on happening.

Good things (yay) and less good, alas (boooh!)

TL; DR: Doggy ok, eye isn't, call me Captain Harlock...

Good things:

* My doggy is much, much, much better! She went again to see her friend the vet (yes, she loves my vet and always is very happy to go there, because she has treats and hugs) found her in good shape. The only side effect on her treatment is that sometimes now Taiga "forgets" herself and is extremely mortified by those little accidents and run and hide when it happens.. poor baby.. I was smart when I sewed her that bed with a waterproof under cover: it makes keeping her bedding nice and dry and clean very easy, and the doc said that it would surely pass with time. It is a mater of being patient and I do not mind at all, seeing she is all happy and healthy.

*The hole in my ceiling is close and my verandah is even prettier than before: the new ceiling is a tad more reflective and I have tiny rainbows everywhere, it makes me happy

*I have a new computer! Well, no, not really, but I gathered bits and pieces from my comp savvy friends and we managed to build me something that will more or less hold so I am back


Bad thing

There is one bad thing, but it is alas, the same recurring problem that is happening to me. Those who know a little about me know about the way my eyes were damaged whan I as young (abusive mother who threw me head first in a door) and that I have already have surgery repeatitevely to try and fix the damage.
3 weeks ago, more or less, I started to see a black spot dancing on my left eyesight. I dismissed it as tiredness or being blinded by sun at first, as my left eye is the more damaged and can't "close" the pupil to sun, leading me to be regularly blinded.
When it kept on, and got more and more painful I grew worried and called my eye surgeon. He told me in non diplomatic terms to go get to him asap and not wait twice about it (he was very frank, very angry that I had waited so long, and very upset).
As it turns out, that black spot is a blood clot. At some point my eye bled inside...  
I entered the clinic on thursday morning for what I thought would be routine check, and got out past noon, having been submitted to several very stressful (I hate, hate, hate hospitals so I freak out like crazy when they start to examine me) tests that I am still waiting results for.
In the course of the following weeks I will have to undergo several other exams, an ocular tomography and an ondothelial count. Those will help see where the problem is, and the amount of cells having survived the accident: eye cells do not regenerate, when you lost those it is for good so maybe it is not even useful to undergo surgery.

How do I feel about this? Blasée, in fact. I mean.. That eye has been making my life a misery for so long. It hurts all the time, it gives me horrible headache. I think I may even be beter without it, so if they can not stop the pain, I may very well just ask them to stop try to save it.
I am sure several of you would be very happy to design me some fun little eyepatches, no?


Anything, for those expecting art from me (aka SHINeeSHAWOL4Life and Ay-leen ) do not worry, I am not forgetting you, it is just that staying too long in front of the computer is kinda hard on me so I work at a snail pace, and I am working on a RL thingie that is top secret but will be revealed soon!


Since I am here, a shout out of love for my dear friends:

You're the best guys! Thank you so so so much for your support, your kind words, your advice, and for being awesomeness incarnate!
