Yes, a stylist at my hairdressers, She's in her late 30's ,says it's brilliant.
I thought about it but although am not frightened of surgery or pain, i am not confident enough to have it done in case something went wrong. One's sight is so precious. I wear contacts for holidays and when it suits me.lol.
Son and dau wear contacts, son 20[ not 21 as I put before.lol] wants laser treatment...he's only just this last 2 months started wearing contacts and has never worn glasses.

Does your local hospital charge for car parking and do they have a parking problem,i;e not enough spaces.

I wear contact lenses outside and use glasses indoors...I have considered surgery but am not brave enough...My son wants it done, he was advised to wait until he is 25.

do you know anybody who has had it done?

Mine and the children's [21 and 23] is about 3 miles, hubby's is 2.

If you needed spectacles , would you consider laser eye surgery.

B. Anne,sorry to hear of your cancer, but glad that the chemo isn't having any ill effects on you. Hope you're treatment will be successful and over soon.


Yes, my Dr sent me in with what he thought was 'acute appendicitis' came out 4 days later with raging tonsillitis and still have my appendix 35 yrs later.

Have you been a blood donor.?

Anne

Anne Report 16 Apr 2009 17:04

Currently under going chemo for breast cancer, which was a shock because I don't come under any of the high risk categories ie I'm slim, had 3 children never smoked and eat a very healthy diet [ but I don't feel ill and still working part time , so not all bad]

He was an indoor pet.

Do you need spectacles or do you have good vision..?

We had a brother & sister from kittens,Lucy died last year at home aged 17.
We are hoping to have a couple more this year once we have been on holiday. Fortunately our boxer,Amy adores cats.

Do you keep any pets indoors?

a new neighbour a few doors away has 3 cats and come to think of it birds not been so frequent but I thought it was because of the weather warming up and they were finding more natural food.

Have you ever owned a cat?

*$parkling $andie*

*$parkling $andie* Report 14 Apr 2009 22:23

Blackbirds and Magpies, tho we do have a resident robin.

Do you have a problem with the cats going after the birds, my neighbour opposite has 6 cats, I'm for ever shooing them out of the garden.?

Anne

Anne Report 14 Apr 2009 22:07

Yes, we have a bird feeding station and bird table plus squirrels after the peanuts.


What species of birds do you see the most?
