How do you react to the things you can’t prepare for?…
Very late last year, just before Christmas, the sight in my right eye became blurred. It was manageable at first, when the haze wasn’t so bad, but over the course of a few weeks it gradually got worse, to the point my sight essentially became half clear and half hazy.
