[Diabetes-talk] Prosthesis (was Whole Lemons)

Mon Mar 4 17:43:43 UTC 2013

My right eye was like that as well!!  Almost killed me, in fact.  Doc
wouldn't remove it because, believe it or not, I still had useable
vision in the silly thing.  I begged and begged them for an entire
summer!!!  It was a summer straight from Hell!!!
