Does George want participate here too? We would love to have him also if he feels up to it.
George is legally blind....He has Stargardts disease which affects his center vision....like when you look into a bright light and look away? He has those spots all the time. That is how he got started in carpet cleaning because he got retired early from Roadway. He can't do computer stuff, and has to sit right in front of the TV to really see whats going on. I do all of his reading for him, he can do it for a short time but has to have it right up to his eyes with a magnifier. And it strains his eyes and gives him bad headaches. He can drive but only in certain states and has to use a Bioptic lens and get his eyes retested every 5 years. He has great peripheral vision and that is how he is still able to function, when he looks at something directly he cannot see it so he always looks at things indirectly. His driving is starting to get worse, so I do all of the driving for the most part now. He only does Facebook because he has the iPad and can zoom it but only for a few minutes at a time.
I read many conversations to him and he gets a good laugh! some of the things I say are actually from him as well, we pretty much agree about everything!
Also, he is starting to get the chemo fog a bit and exhaustion of course so I am pretty much his brain, eyes, and mouthpiece now....
I wish he could because I think it would be good for him, but he just can't do it....
I will look up how to attach pics and will show you all a pic of him, and my daughter as well!
