I May Disappear Suddenly

[Little BabyDoll Christine]

No, it does not mean that I have been taken to Fairyland

In addition to the original Rubella related eyesight problems I was born with. something new has developed over the last 6 years. Last year it was finally diagnosed as Keratokonus and Corneal edema. The first is a degenerative condition and is now reaching a critical stage. The cure, if possible, which is usually the case, is a corneal transplant

This was to my knowledge the first transplant operation ever and was first done in 1905. Now it is done under local anesthetic and takes about an hour and a half and a few months for eyesight to return to the situation ante. If I vanish suddlenly then that is what I will be doing.
