Oh, man. TCN has a truly tough row to hoe; blindness is completely terrifying as a health threat even when you know what's going on
Agreed. But at least she doesn't understand it, so she can't stress about the possible future. She just really wants to be able to do her puzzles. Even at 5, there are things you would miss horrendously if you had to change your whole lifestyle for blindness.
My heart goes out to her, and to the niece as well. Your brother did everything right, and it sucks that it wasn't enough.
My brother has always been smart about these kinds of things. You should have heard the lecture he gave me after my terrible sunburn this year, about how I did everything wrong and then instructing me on what to do next. lol Maybe it's the years on a construction site, but he knows how to treat an injury.
Hopefully your sister's visit will make a difference.
Well, I think it helped make her feel better. And my brother and S-I-L. The Niece just wanted to play with my sister's phone the whole time. lol I guess that's a sign she's feeling better!
