Eye nerve damage from diabetes. This helps me to read my own post for typos etc. without using a magnafing flass, which I have to do for other people's post. Making the screen bigger does not help as much as using bold. That is why I do not post much anymore. It is so hard to read others posts even with a mag. glass.

My eye condition really pisses me off too. 10 years in Korea, 10 times physical ecams for my various colleges and universities, and only #10 told me the results. I have most likely had very bad untreated diabetes for many years, and if I had been told that, I could have started tertment and wold not have perm. eye nerve damage. Just 24 hours ater physical #10 they wanted me to go to the hospital for the results. I was maybe weeks away from dying if I did not start treatment that very day. I am must better after only a few weeks of medication. However, they eyse thing is forever. And, the true prescription for me that works best is the same as before the eye damage. Not very strong. So, I should have 20/20 with my glasses. But, it is blurry, and always will be. And, with my dyslexia on top of it, spell (typo) check on this site would be a real blessing. I guess I can be an example that spell check is somthing that helps people with disabilities, and it not just a lazy way out.


wah wah wah, you need-ah nookie, chicken-boy! Laughing

Visit mom, sister, old friends, and go fishing for bass, crappie, and big flat head catfish. And eat something awesomely delicious like Taco Bell. Well, it's a 14 hour flight each way so no I didn't have time today to do what I really wanted to do. Surely this is the never ending story of thread. Where's my white flying luck dragon named, "Falcor?"

Is that dark or bold print above supposed to mean anything, or are we all supposed to be wowed by its darkness or boldness?

Personally, dark and bold words always intimidate me. Then again I am timid, so if you just said boo...I'd scatter like a scalded cat.

All right sorry about the dig. Spell check is automatic for me on firefox, the red line under words that may be wrong. It is under "firefox" now even.
