Today was the day, kids — Quasimodo for the win!! The cunning little Basal Cell Surprise has been routed, three cheers for the good guys!
Muy painful, but that won’t last long, right? The eye will remain surgically closed for the next six to eight weeks while the graft (skipping right over the details here) establishes itself. Meanwhile, functioning with one eye when I’m used to two is an adventure in staying upright. Depth perception and a gyro are dicey for me on a good day, so all respect to people who manage to excel at this!
Wanna see what the MOHS procedure-thing looks like? Holy cow, what a poor sport!
Okay, I’ll just post it for my aunt and that one friend …

I wish you all the very best. A year ago I was facing much the same unknown. One’s eyesight is a blessing. I pray yours will be OK.

Right now I’m whiny — the fun of being this uncomfortable is wearing thin. Good lord, though, such a small inconvenience relative to what’s available out there in the greater world! Pretty sure I’m gonna live, thanks! ❤

You’ve got such a great attitude, Miss Judy. Nothing’s gonna beat you…even if it looks like something did. 😉
