Update

Things have been hectic in our world. Which has prevented me from updating. So a quick update...

Billy's last eye appt. was a good one. He is now seeing 20/40 in his left eye, that is with correction of course. He was at 20/100 with correction so this is a HUGE improvement. We don't believe that his eyesight will improve much without correction in that eye, but he is seeing so much better now. And he actually prefers to wear his glasses because of it.

The funny thing is, with the pair he picked out and the fact that he has been wanting to grow his hair a little longer, he is now being called Harry Potter everywhere he goes. He liked it at first, but is now growing tired of it. I find it amusing.

The school year is almost done. I will post another update around the end of school. Thank you so much everyone for your support!!

New Year 2010

Christmas time was a very busy time in our house. Billy's mom works in retail and Billy's dad works in the restaurant business, so not a lot of down time adding the stress of the holidays.
Billy had a great holiday though. Got everything on his wish list. Also got him another pair of glasses. We got them as a back up pair in case he lost his or they got damaged or whatever.
He picked out Navy blue Converse, and he likes them better than his first pair. He wears these all of the time.

We have our follow up appointment with the eye doctor today. Thank God! I am anxious to see if the glasses has helped him at all. I am not that optimistic though because he has been having trouble patching. It gives him a headache and causes his eyes to hurt. So what was supposed to be an hour a day of patching has been more like 15 minutes. I will be talking to the doctor about this and see what other options or advise she has.

I will post how the appointment goes. Keeping my fingers crossed for improvement!
