Having to do reply separate

It won't post with your post for reply.
My reply..
Hugs about the possible eye issue.
My eyes are changing too, so it is concerning me also.
I spend too long on screens.
So I keep looking outside through my open door and focussing on a distant object for 20 seconds. Eye hospital said to do this. Said to do it at least every 20 minutes. I do forget a bit because I am on the screen in the middle of something, that I could lose.
Eye doctor said, every 20 minutes, for 20 seconds, look at object 20 metres away. But you need an open window/door for this...
I also do a couple of apps with eye exercises. I am not sure how much they help, but it doesn't help that I keep forgetting to do them. So many other things I have to do as well to maintain this creaking old body.
Just had reminder text last night saying about eye hospital appointment in England in 3 months time (it's once yearly). So, I will kick back into action today on the eye stuff. This is not laziness on my part, it is some event which turned everything upside down in my life, and affects my children also. Two are not accepting this well. The daughter in Oz, we are having a lot of emotional talks on this. I do keep breaking down. I have not mentioned it on here, it is complex. Don't worry it is not a physical body health issue.
But this level of stress affected my eyesight, and everything went more blurred, which happens to me in times of stress. I have been trying to work on that...the stress. I am doing my own strategies. But I do keep losing my way. Overwhelmed would be a good word for my issue.
You have had a horrendous accident
@jjraak So much to deal with, so much to process, even on a daily basis. That alone can put stress on your eyes.
The PTSD counsellor that stood you up...you invested so much time and energy and preparation to deal with that appointment, and the rest of the day. It is a let down, even if you are 'cheerfully' talking about wellies to deal with the downpour of the whole day.
Do what you can to make each day the best possible day for you.
Smell the beautiful scented roses, even if there are none, and see the amazing soft silky petals in your mind. See the beauty of those roses, even if there is no beauty there in front of you. Or something else that will rock your boat and lead you to a more peaceful and restful place, even if it is only for momentarily...
Lots of love and gentle hugs x
The only ballooning today is the national debt and interest payments as my weight is up and down like the value of sterling which seems to have made a miraculous recovery this morning. Against everything known to humankind the Dynamic Duo 
are certain they can make wealth trickle in the opposite direction to that observed everywhere it has been tried. Hugs must abound on here today; @jjraak for a difficult day yesterday; @Annb for pain and bg issues; @lindisfel and The Duchess for costly remedial eye work and lesion issues respectively. @dunelm splendid art again, enjoy your time with TGIB and good news on physio going well. Virtual travel is such a wonderful idea. @gennepher fantastic number of views on Youtube already and thanks for the collage as well as today's video. @karen8967 wonderful to see that smile emoji. Busy day here: MIL has an eyesight test; two vacuum cleaners to be serviced; two grandchildren to be collected from school then fed and watered. Covid jab done although I'm not thrilled (understatement) it was Moderna. Do enjoy your day safely whilst discharging your duty of care to those you meet and those needing prayers or other help.
