This will be a short post, because my eyes suck and it's difficult to see. The GVHD in my eyes is not getting better so I will be getting amniotic stem cells in my left eye in about ten days. They put the cells in my eye and then a contact lens over them for about 2 weeks. It's kind of interesting. Incredibly enough these will be the third stem cells, other than my own, to enter my body. Can we all say freak of nature!! Can we all say thank God for this science!!
My other GVHD stuff is improving. My mouth is better, but my gums are still sore. I'm still having some trouble swallowing, the lower region is much better and my skin is improving. I'm also heading to Boston for a recheck this week and hopefully my liver and kidneys are handling all these meds okay.
I'm not looking at Facebook or my phone very much, because, honestly, it really hurts. If anyone wants to talk to me please call, because it's easier for me. My eyes have dry patches on the cornea so sunlight or any bright light really bother me. Believe it or not, it's hard to cook because of the heat from the stove or oven and I have some double vision so chopping is an adventure. I guess this is just another learning experience for me and hopefully this blog can help someone else going through something similar know that they are not alone.
Yes, I did do the Virtual Zoom Comedy Showcase last week. I'm not thrilled with my performance, but the other comedians were absolutely amazing!!
Peace, Face masks, and Missing People
