Thanks for the compliments, guys. Spent much of today getting some blood work done at the VA, then went to the boat to fire up the engine, which has not been started for a couple months. The VA changed my appointment date, but failed to let me know, so I have to go back in July and have the blood work repeated, then see the doc. Think I might just go sailing for a week or two before the next scheduled appointments in July. Might just change the date and not tell them - just to get even. All the best, Gary

Finally, the eye doc tells me that I have Dry, Age-related, Macular Degeneration, and I will eventually go blind. He wanted to see me again in six months, and I told him that I will not be returning unless someone develops a cure for Dry AMD, which isn't likely. No reason to see a doctor that can't do anything for you. Gary Hi Gary, my mum was diagnosed with macular degeneration about a year ago. At first she was told she had the type that wouldn’t send her blind, then they switched diagnosis and said she had the type that would. Unfortunately she lives close to a 1000 miles away, so don’t really get to see her often, and am not involved with her health problems. So not sure what type she has, she was told she would go blind. But, her optometrist sent her to one of the best specialists in the state, and told her if anything could be done, this guy would know what to do. He recommended getting injections in her eye. Definitely not a cure, but her eyesight has not gotten worse. It has stabilised it for the last year or so. No better no worse. I think she gets this shot once a month, or maybe every second , not sure, and apparently doesn’t hurt at all.
