Sandra and I just wanted to thank everyone for making us feel welcome at the rally! We didn't get to meet everyone, but, we did get to meet Alta, Danny and Judy, Dan and Sandy, Les and Karen, George and Rosetta, Ron and Rhonda, Jack and Margie. We are both a little shy so it was out of our comfort zone and we appreciated all of ya'll welcoming us in
We were so sorry we had to up and leave so early, but, we did pull out Sunday morning about 8:30am because Sandra started seeing floaters and flashes of light in her right eye. We were afraid of a detached retina and drove 16 hours straight to get back home to Burleson, pulled in about 1:30am monday morning.
We were at our Opthamologist at 9am Monday morning and saw the Retina Specialist Thursday morning. Good news is the retina is not detached at this time, but, she has what is called hemorrhagic posterior vitreous detachment right next to the retina. The Dr. said the detached vitreous is something all of us will experience to some degree as we age. Dr. feels like vision will return to normal over the coming weeks or maybe even months, but, it should return. He wants to see her again in a week because the detachment and bleeding were right next to the retine and he wants to watch it for awhile. Says its a relatively easy repair if it is necessary.
We are on the waiting list for the National Rally and hope to see ya'll again sometime in the future.
Thanks,
Buster and Sandra Foster
