Hi, it's fajarabird here. Had a bad few weeks with difficulty seeing and can just about email dearest daughter Jules but not for long. Just wanted to keep in touch. Guess I will need to return soon to U.K.

sorry to hear you have been having problems. Do hope it's starting to improve now. It will be nice for you to come back to see Jules.

It is good that you are still keeping in touch when you can.

Are you saying that your health is why you might need to return ornis it to be closer to family for the future?

Love n hugs

I really do empathise with the vision problem Val. I had my cataracts removed last Autumn and replaced with new lenses, mostly as my long-distance vision was only just legal for driving.

I was warned that my reading/close vision would be impaired by the procedure and I would need glasses for reading, but I wasn't prepared for what's actually happened. I can read with glasses and see well to drive but anything in between is blurry, especially my computer screen. So I have the text permanently on maximum zoom but it's still a struggle.

Is your vision difficulty a result of your CAA my dear ? And are you considering returning to the UK as a result of your health issues or is the political changes which are forcing you to leave S.Africa. So sorry you're struggling right now Val. Love Cat xx

Hello there mum, Jules here.

I am getting your emails, hope you are getting mine now.

Its frustrating not being able to do some things you used to do with ease isnt it.

My eyes are worse today - my main problem i think though is lack of sleep.

I am guessing someone somewhere has researched the clash of a Bi with ageing - I dont think i want to know, do you ?
