Thanks Lightning fingers crossed.

I'm tipping you didn't see that coming. There are already too many one eyed Hawthorn people on here...

Hope it all goes well. My next door neighbor had a similar episode last year and the surgery had her back on track in no time.

Do you only go see your vet when you're hanging out with your sick bat?
He might start to feel used.

That made me laugh. Thanks.

Geez, all the best CM

Hoping for a quick recovery CM

Goodluck and a speedy recovery CM

Look after yourself, CM.

Ok so I’m in the waiting area of the hospital where the surgery happens. Spoke to the surgeon it’s about a 40 minute procedure. They will inject stuff into my eye, which sounds like fun, then repair the scar and re attach the retina by laser surgery. I’m awake for this by the way! But sedated. I’m most worried about moving or flinching at the wrong time.

I’ve seen people who have already had their surgery either yesterday or this morning. Spoke to one bloke he said it was pretty straight forward and not to worry. Other than wearing an eye patch he was fine.

So I’m now considering either getting a parrot or a Collingwood membership.

Why, are you having several front teeth removed too?

No. More a reference to being one eyed.

Was thinking of that Monty Python sketch where John Cleese’s character says he is planning an assault on the twin peaks of Kilimanjaro!

Good lord, hope it goes well CM.

Did they explain how or why this could've happened?

Pretty much genetics. History of eye issues, cataracts etc in the family. My left eye also has a stigmatism, meaning it’s a slightly odd shape. That in turn puts some pressure on the retina.. at least that’s what I took away from what the surgeon said.

So it's not porn related?

Influencing factor maybe.

I was hoping not to hear that.

Mum lied to you.
You don’t go blind!

Sick of working with lazy people.. and worse is when those who did nothing are praised because they make everyone believe they're holding the world together.
