sweet moment after her surgery: we were in bed, just starting to stir, she leaned over me, looked at the clock and said: “it’s 5:30.
I was a bit slow on the uptake. What she was really conveying to me was that she could see the clock for the first time in many years w/o her contacts in.
I was very happy for her.
Nice story.
I loved being able to see what the clock said first thing without having to put on glasses.
My brother always asks me if there is anything I need. A digital clock with "Big Numbers"; that I can see from bed; without my glasses. My first night, something woke me up, and I could now see the small numbers on the clock radio.
