Hi. Thank you! I got so used to it that I’d find myself rushing around with my eyes closed! On stairs! Around corner! So I was often bruised lol. I’d been getting botox shots for years to kind of paralyze my eyelids but they didn’t really help enough. Last month I had surgery to lift my eyelid muscles. It’s helped me keep both eyes open at the same time.
I think we learn to adjust to everything- i think we’re stronger than we know!

@jkesparza You're right- we are stronger than we know...But do we really need to be tested every day?! 😵‍💫

I agree we are stronger than we know. We seem to have to cope with whatever presents to us in older age. My nemesis is arthritis all over. Its Painful.
