Over a year later

It has been over a year since the diagnosis and the prognosis has been very positive. Dr. Kavner has been a great asset in our lives and without my wife doing everything she does i dont know the mental health and state i would currently be in.

As of now we have moved on to the computer program which went from almost 3-5 times a week to now once a week and we will scale back from there.

She still despises the program as it seems boring to her, but whatever bribe or incentive i do to get her to do it, im willing to shell it out. My wife works on the back end, i put the work in place, i deal with the program and am better at enforcing it then she is. I dont mind, we wouldnt be here if not for my wife and my sister and their patience in doing what they have done.

My sister spent the better part of 2 months coming by Sunday Nights and leaving on Fridays back home helping us and that was the godsend.

Ill tell her now (my daughter) but she wont understand. I figure the best way now is to just put this down and send it to her later at a future date. This way she knows to thank her for those countless hours spent doing paper and computer activities.

My younger will have to be tested next year to confirm that she doesnt have it but if she does we will be more prepared than before (THATS FOR SURE). The stress i feel now compared to the stress i felt that first week is not even comparable. I can talk about it plainly now and be thankful for the people that were understanding through out that time period.

I just sent a thank you to my boss at the time for his understanding of everything. Now i can just hope that people will see this and know it gets less stressful but just stay on top of it.

To Amblyopia and being the dad that i think will still call his daughter in college if need be to make sure she does the program, even if i have to skype in to her to do it.
