[livejournal.com profile] quelonzia update

The Fire of my Heart is back. Surgery went well; on the drive home, she was astounded at the IMMEDIATE improvement in her vision, both from the absence of cataract cloudiness and the reduction or elimination of near-sightedness from that eye.

She's currently snoozing peacefully, sleeping off the last of the sedative from the operation.

No word on my sister, yet; Mom's new cell phone is apparently either out of juice or out of service area.

It seems that "setting up voice mail" is to the dawn of the One-And-Twenty what "setting the clock on the VCR" was to the '80s and '90s.

I hope things go well for you and your family. My mom went through the Cataract procedure many years ago, and she is doing very well.

*HUGS* to Quelonzia. :)

Very happy to hear the good news! We must do coffee again sometime in the future, once she's all healed up.

It's been awhile since I had to set up voice mail, and I've never owned a cell, but it sounds like you're saying that setting up voice mail is:

(a) something people realize they probably should get around to at some point,
(b) something that's fairly straightforward, and
(c) something people are nonetheless afraid to attempt, because the technology scares them.

Of course, if it's also (d) something that people speak unashamedly of being unable to figure out, then it's also the modern counterpart to "setting the VCR to record something later".

Glad things are going well with Quel. Hope your sister fares well also.

I'm extremely glad the surgery was a success, and that she's doing all right. As always, all the best to the both of you, my friend.

I'm glad to hear Quel's okay. Good wishes for your sister, and I hope the new vision is worth all the hassle. :)

I'm glad to know Quel is doing well. But I'll continue to keep the candle lit for her, and light one for you as well. }:-*)
