Good to hear from you Joe ! Know all about that Diabetes and eye trouble. Every six weeks, the Dr numbs my eyes with drops for about 30 seconds and then takes a insulin syringe and injects Avastin in each eye. My sight goes out for about 30 minutes, but THANK GOD they have this. Without it, I would go blind. It is experimental, but it is restoring some of my sight. It is not approveeed by the FDA for the eyes yet. It is used in Colon Cancer. Take pictures of everybody down there. I still might make it down there this Fall. Kevin Morgan

I am glad that you are on the mend, Joe! - Heather http://surgerysupport.uchicago.edu/hblair/ On Wed, 9 May 2007, Joe Sissom wrote: > >> I don't know what happened to Joe, > Some weeks ago I had a stroke in the lower half on my right eye --- no > big deal except members of the medical community were absolutely certain > that eye pressure could predict a 'major' stoke.
