"I was taken aback when he said that. I can't see, read, or watch anything."

"He wrote that he has been dealing with a severe eye infection that has left him with limited vision in one eye. Although he is healing, the process is extremely slow and it will take some time before sight returns to the affected eye."

I have been quietly recuperating at home and am feeling positive about my healing and recovery progress.
