debris4spikeI may have mentioned in the past that Mum had Bell's Palsey in 2004, just after we lost our Spaniel, Misty. Well, sadly things never really cleared up 100% and then about 2 years ago her face started getting worse.
She has seen various docs and last year, at long last, saw a doctor who actually realised what a struggle she has with her vision - Having lost most of her sight in the other eye a few years ago.
He tried some injections, which worked for a few weeks, so we were hopeful that a treatment had been found - but the doctor said it would be better if he operated to removed fat and skin from around the eyes (has to be both sides to match), and also to raise her eye-brow.
She hasn't a date at present, as she only heard yesterday ... but thought I would scribble this here, so if I start to panic about her, you know why.
