My eye has turned in after the operation even though it was so straight following it for 4 days! Now it's stuck inside it was originally outwards facing but only 50% of the time now it's permanently in there im on day 6 I'm so scared I feel so ugly 😭

Keep up the amazing work! Ty for sharing your personal journey as it resonates/being vulnerable can be difficult but it shows the “human side” & you demonstrated a solution (from your course). Hope more sign up (im one of the 3!) as I did find some “gold nuggets” already & it’s challenging me to “see” things differently. You go girl!

17-year-old son? Did I hear you wrongly? Did you have him when you were eight?

lol! He is 16 and I am 38. I was definitely young, 22, but not quite 8.

You helped me a LOT!🎉 I was so excited about learning what to expect after surgery because I've always bounced back with in a day or to but watch g your video on Your Strabismus journey and your weren't wrong on how long it takes to recover. I'm having so many problems with my near vision. My surgery was May 16, 2023 & I'm waiting on my 3rd pair of reading glasses with prisms(these things are like pop bottles) to see if I can finally read my phone. Right now, I usually have it to one side of my field of vision so my weak eye closes and my dominate eye is used for clarity(no words on top of words-the lines merge...& typing¿? Don't get me started. I get so frustrated that I have to use Google Voice type for me, otherwise I have to re and re-read and correct & recorrect and cut n paste before I send it. I just want to be able to read again...is that going to be possible? Again, kudos for sharing your journey. I was able to make an informed decision.
