That is really good news. You deserve it, my friend.

I have a pal who works as a therapist in the St james Hospital in Newcastle/ He says, "therapy is about change".

I think he is probably right, but I hope nobody will tell him that I said so.

:lol:

yes andrew thats what they say change is good.

but i kind of like who i am and so do many other people i know.

i just need to improve my confidence and self esteem a great deal.

along with other medical problems i wont go into for personal reasons.

mainly my mental health issues.

all the best

That is enough to change. I hope all goes well, not only with your eyes but the other issues, too.
