My girls and their eyes

Today we did the doctor visits. I got second opinions. Both Elizabeth and Rachel have had eye surgery and it looks like we are going to go through it again. This time I feel extremely happy about our doctor. He is incredible! He took TWO HOURS with Elizabeth and Rachel...and he was sooo patient. His verdict was that Elizabeth's will probably be fixed but Rachel's will be a lifetime battle.....

:(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((

I am going to cry now. The house is quiet and I am alone. My poor girl!

Okay, I know that there are so many children with cancer.....children that pass away...and I'm very, very grateful that this isn't the case for us and I even feel guilty for feeling sad about this but I don't want my Rachel to have to deal with this all of her life. Right now she doesn't even have a clue. She feels so confident...She walks into a room full of kids and introduces herself and gets right into the thick of things. Everyone is her friend and the world is her playground...and her stage. She sings to everyone, dances around everywhere...I just will not accept it.

She will have normal eyes. They will be fixed and she will not be limited. That is all there is to it. I have seen with my OWN eyes more impossible things...things doctors SAID were impossible...so that is it: This will happen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
