For anyone playing What TF is wrong with Marian Allen bingo, if you have temporomandibular joint disorder, you may mark it on your card. It means my jawbone isn’t properly hinged (no “unhinged” jokes, please), but it doesn’t really give me much trouble, so I’m not selling both my kidneys to pay for the appliances to mitigate it. I have some exercises to do for it.
But that’s not what I’m going to the doctor for today. Today, I’m going for the first of two Posterior Capsulotomies (YAG surgery). According to WebMD, “A YAG laser posterior capsulotomy is a procedure done to help remove scar tissue after you’ve had a lens replacement.” About 60% of people who get cataracts removed have to do this. It also says I will “likely” feel no pain, which isn’t as reassuring as they probably think it is.
ANYWAY, I did my nails all the time I was doing Christmas in July with Teagan Geneviene, and, in honor of her and her 20’s themed books (she has other books that are not 20’s themed as well), I did these nails.
I did these on other weeks, including for this week.
Whew! All caught up, now.

August 7, 2024 at 8:59amI had the long-distance lens put in. They should last out my life. This was cleaning off scar tissue that sometimes forms, obscuring the light coming in. They just zap it off and it doesn’t come back. About 60% of the people who get cataract lens replacement have to get this done, which means 40% never do. It turned out to be no problem. EXCEPT — The doctor sat across from me, aiming his lasar at the scar tissue and zapping each piece, and it was all I could do to keep from going, “Pew! Pew! Pew! Use the Force, Luke!”
