Do You See That Dot?


The one right next to Caely's EYE! Let me tell you, it is NOT a freckle.

Today at school a kid in her class was swinging his pencil around and hit his palm to her mouth and stabbed her in the eye lid. Yes, I said stabbed because there is a freaking hole there!

The spot may be small but the realization is huge that she was less than 1/2 an inch from having something as serious as loosing her sight today.

When she told me about it I guess my face told her how serious it was because I really freaked her out, poor kid. I know it was a totally accident and the kid was just playing around, I'm not upset at him at all. I'm just counting my blessings tonight because this truly was a blessing that she wasn't more seriously hurt, she really had an angel by her side today.

Bryson was hit in the eye with a stick from very close range when he was about 4 years old. The damage to his optic nerve is irreparable. His vision will always be bad in that eye. Such a close call for Caely.
