  • Today Chad had cataract surgery and also recieved a new Symphony lens while they were at it which gives him a built in bifocal so he will no longer require reading glasses he now has 20 20 vision! He is so excited, first hearing aids, now cataract surgery and Symphony lenses, next he just needs a good walking cane and he will be all set for old age!

    I had my Gallbladder removed at 54 and am 60 now and I feel great since then. It made a world of difference. Totally stopped the pain. Before surgery the pain hit me in the middle of the night for two years before I did anything about it. It was laparoscopic surgery and only took 30 minutes and they sent me home after I woke up. Rested for about a week and was so much better. Love watching you and your family.

    I can relate to your videos as my husband of 54 years had his eyes done first and three years ago he had the hearing aids and several other things but all a part of living a good long life and enjoying it. :-) I hope your eye continues to do well and you will have a whole new outlook on things........LOL
    Jen you make a great nurse! God bless you both and love going on your journey with you as you walk through the days and months and episodes. The M&M's look yummy and the cookies Delicious. Makes me hungry! ;-)
    Blessings to you both!

Now told transplant has a cataract growing in the transplant so not good news. But I am so grateful for the research and talented doctors. My only daughter been diagnosed with the same condition so hopefully she will have better luck and research will help her. So happy for you eye sight is such a blessing.

    Ahhh bless Chad ....he will be so different after the surgery. When I was 33 I had my left eye straightened which also gave me my confidence back as I was told by one awful person one day "who are you looking at?" Called me boss eyed...was so upsetting...but now and since I can look straight at people without feeling silly.....not a nice feeling..... looking good now Chad and your lovely Jennifer I know will look after you well...you two are just so lovely bless you. Feel better soon dear Chad...God bless xxxx

    Aww... You guys are so precious 😘💕!! Our son had cataract surgery in both eyes and he was only 15 or 16. Had to be from his development. Well, anyway, I had gallbladder surgery Jennifer!!! I felt sick for a year and getting all kinds of tests done. I even got sick while on a family vacation, throwing up, back and shoulders where hurting to the point I could not lay down!! My husband took me to the ER and they did a CT scan and found only an ulcer! Did not believe it!!! Finally I had a HIDA scan which resulted in proof for the surgery! Once I had the surgery they found multiple stones!!!
    So good luck!! Trust your instinct!

    Glad Chad is recovering nicely from cataract surgery - both of our mothers had that done about a decade ago, and I will face it in about 7-10 years myself. And Jennifer, please don't wait too long for the gallbladder. Gallstones do not go away, but they can wreak havoc on your bile duct, liver and kidneys. My mother was in her mid-50s, she waited too long and ended up in ICU for over two weeks with a damaged bile duct, jaundice, and kidney failure on the right. I will keep you both in my prayers! PS. Glad the smell in the house is dissipating.

    Oh, darn you, Jennifer. You don't deserve to live in fear or pain. I was misdiagnosed and stones were not discovered in my gall bladder. As it turns out I had one large stone hiding at the entrance of the bile duct. I was lucky to finally, after much suffering, get my gallbladder removed. The surgeon said it had started to turn gangrenious and could have cost me my life. Bite the bullet and get back to living a full life. 💜💛💜

    Glad you’re doing good Chad! It would be a bit unnerving to have eye surgery....that’s one thing I have not yet had done....and I’m certain it’s only a matter of time!! Im not afraid to have surgery, but the thought of cutting on my eyes freaks me out!! As they say, getting old is not for the faint of heart! You are very blessed to have such a wonderful nurse to take care you, and to grow old with! God bless you both ♥️

    So glad you are doing well, Chad. Jennifer, I would consider thinking about that gallbaldder! Last year, I was in the hospital for five days with my gallbladder. I too had stones and six stones moved from my gallbladder into my liver bile duct resulting in very painful obstruction. This required two procedures, one going down my throat to remove the six stones from the liver bile duct following the next day with the removal of my gall bladder.
    The stones will not go away on their own so please get more opinions! All the best to you and your family! (love you all and love your cookbook!)

    I encourage you to make an appointment with a surgeon and schedule to have your gallbladder removed. This is usually a laproscopic, out-patient procedure. After I had my gallbladder removed, I don't think I even took even one pain pill. Please don't wait until you have another "gallbladder attack" before seeking surgical intervention. It's a simple, straightforward remedy to a gallbladder full of stones.

    Best wishes for a speedy recovery Grandpa Griffiths and hope your bladder stones sort them selves out soon Grandma Griffiths. When my Grandmother had hers done back in the 80s it was a weeks stay in hospital - amazing how medicine has come on. My husband had the same eye operation at the beginning of December and had to wear an eye guard for a couple of days and one at night for 2 weeks. It took a while but after about a month he was seeing perfect and like you say no more glasses which is awesome. Sending big hugs to you both

  • @sarahamazinggrace
    @sarahamazinggrace 3 года назад

    Glad Chad is recovering well. Word about the gallbladder issues. I was having attacks and tried herbs and everything to put off the surgery, hoping it would get better. I’m a nurse and worked in natural medicine at the time. I wish I wouldn’t have waited, and just have had surgery when I had that first attack. My gallbladder got so inflamed it ruptured! It was a mush more complicated surgery, and recovery. Then, about a month after my recovery I came to know a patient who’s father did the same as me, waited, and his ruptured, too. He didn’t fair as well, and he passed away from sepsis! Not being a Debbie downer here, but now I warn anyone who’s “waiting and seeing” like I did. It can end up becoming very serious very fast. Be in good health, Jennifer. God bless you guys.

    I had one eye done in November swiftly followed by the other in December. My eyes had got so bad I couldn't drive for months before surgery. I live in the UK and we are not put out for the surgery, I was awake thoughout, weird sensation but totally pain free. Make sure you don't do any bending or lifting for at least 3 weeks.
    The only downside to having crystal clear eyesight is I quickly realised how dirty my house was, not anymore now.
    Go careful with your recovery, wishing you both well.
