Eye Surgery

Yay! Only spent 12 hours at the hospital, (4 hours too long....) but at least I am home. I look like I was in a boxing match lol and lost. People might wonder why I post photos of surgeries, but there are a few reason.

One: If someone might be going to have the same surgery, they can see what might happen after. And to tell the truth, my eye doesn't hurt unless I forget and go to touch it.

Two: I have a crap memory lol So posting the photos helps me to remember what it use to look like and what happened.

Three: Some people actually want to see the photos. Horror movie fans maybe? :p

But so people have something to see that might bring a smile to their face. have a baby goat being a dick ;p



And now onto the photos

  3. So glad the surgery went smoothly and that your eye doesn't hurt. Hope you get some sympathy mileage out of that black eye! Love the goats & thanks for the reminder - I need to pluck my eyebrows, too. Take good care of yourself, Jennifer Rose!

  4. Did I miss what the surgery was for?
    Looks like very neat stitching and follows the contour of the eye very well. LOVE the color of your eyes....not the lids!

    1. surgery was to put a small piece of gold in my eyelid to try to help it close better :)

      yeah they are pretty good at cutting in places where any scar will be hidden

      and thanks about my eyes :) its narcissistic but I keep meaning to paint them :p

    2. I had a stitch in each of my lids to keep them OPEN. they fell down due to an interesting nerve damage thingy, Dry eye is what I have to deal with because they do not close quite tight.
      Enough gold to make you more valuable?

    3. only about £15 richer lol

      how long d you have to keep the stitches in?

    4. permanently. It has been twenty years now. At first the shape of my eyes looked like triangles with with stitch in the (inside) of the middle of the lid. but age and the gravity has mellowed the effect out...or I am used to them. My vanity took a hit at first.

  5. Well, it doesn't look too bad, though I imagine it will have some phenomenal bruising in a few days. I am glad it is not painful for you!
    Heal well!!!

  6. Glad the surgery went well and hope the healing is fast Jennifer. I love kids (the 4 legged sort I hasten to add). Our friend has a dairy goat farm nearby and I love to see the little ones when Kidding starts ...

  8. Oh, it looks very painful, I hope it all went smoothly. Oh I read in the last comment that it is healing well. I must say, coming late to the party means I get the good news as soon as I have seen the surgery!!!
