Due to partial facial paralysis doctors say is temporary, Gerry is experiencing lots of pain in his right eye. He can close it if he focuses and works hard, but otherwise he relies on Debbie to administer eye drops to ease the discomfort.
Doctors say it's normal to have some form of temporary paralysis after brain surgery. Before Gerry went in, they said they expected that his optic nerve would be bruised. We think this is stil the case, and it will probably be some time before his eye is fully functional.
Other than that, Gerry is getting some cabin fever. Due to his eye, it's uncomfortable to read, so his entertainment forms at home are limited. He's visited some neighbors and has gone out for scenic drives. The good news is that he's moving about without the aid of a walker.
There are improvements every day. Your prayers do make a difference!
