Subject: RE: BS: Question for McGrath of Harlow
Real sorry to hear that, Allan: But glad to hear that you were only blind for a few days. I like to walk at night, and got jabbed just below the eye by a low branch one evening... enough to draw blood. Another half inch and I would have had what you had. Eyesight is an amazing thing, even if you haven't lost it. The elderly Mother of a friend of mine went in for a cattaract removal and something went wrong. She had three more operations to try to correct it and when they finished working on her, the eye had gone completely white and all the specialists pronounced her permanently blind in that eye. My friend and her Mother are praying folk, so they turned elsewhere for healing, and a couple of weeks later when she went in for a follow-up on her eye, she read the eye chart with her "blind eye." The Doctors had no explanation for how it could have happened.
