The doctor said “WOW!”
Ever had a doctor exclaim “WOW!” when doing an exam? Happened to me, the first time Dr. Falconer got a glimpse of the big old yellow-orange cataract in my right eye.
And boy, was I lucky! It just happened that he was doing a free eye clinic at Talkeetna the same week that I was diagnosed with glaucoma.–and I got the last available appointment. (Stuff like this happens all the time. Like when I run out of milk–and see a half gallon ofg my faveorite marked down. Expensive stuff like bread and milk, I always buy out-dated or on sale–it is too expensive otherwise. But I digress.)
This “luck”–for want of a more precise word–has kept me alive and kicking for years. And it appears as if there will be enough money in the FBO account to pay for my office visit, and then some. I’ll know more later today when I check the balance.
