one month contact!

Today Calvin finally reached his goal of wearing his contact for one month as he is supposed to do. We started contacts in November and every month he either accidentally lost or took it out somewhere or purposely took it out and ruined it when he was mad.

I am proud of him for doing a better job with it now!

He is trying to be responsible with his contacts so he can earn his Wii back. Dave took it from him a few months ago as a consequence for being so irresponsible and ungrateful for his contacts.

Yay for Calvin!

Also, a month or two ago we met with the opthomologist. We have been seeing the opthomologist 4-6 times/year for the last 6 years. At this appointment he told us that we don't need to see him anymore unless there is a problem. We can follow up with the optician who fits us for his contacts.   It will be nice not to have these appointments any more. (Though I will miss our opthomologist. He was my favorite of all of our Dr's.)  And, the timing couldn't be better. With all this new seizure stuff going on we will probably have plenty of other dr. appointments and things to worry about.

Calvin's vision now is 20/20 in one eye and 20/40 (corrected) in the other. It is probably as good as it will get and I think it is a result we can live with. It is certainly an improvement from where we started which is 20/80.
