It was so great having dad and david here to visit. We had a great time. We went out to dinner on thursday to Los Hermanos (my favorite restaurant). Dad and I went running, and Ben and David went to the golf driving range. We spent a lot of time just hanging out in the evenings and talking. It was so much fun. Then, this morning Ben got his corrective eye surgery done! It was so incredible to watch. They magnified his eyeball on a large TV screen for me to watch the surgery. It was amazing... They had to put these little hooks in his eye to hold his eyelids open so he would not blink. It was totally gross! I think I was more nervous than Ben. I was terrified he was gonna move his eye the wrong way and get blinded! But they did an amazing job, and he can already see a lot better! Its so exciting for him! They gave us a DVD to keep, so you guys can watch it next time you are down here. He is pretty miserable right now, lots of irritation, itchiness, burning sensation. However, that's normal for the first 3-5 days with PRK surgery. He should start to feel better by next week. It was really embarrassing.... as a joke Ben told me that when they do the PRK surgery he would loose his eye color. He has the most beautiful blue eyes... so I was really sad about that. So, as the surgery was being done, I was talking to the other doctors and the nurse lady about how I will miss his blue eyes... They looked at me like I was a bit crazy. How embarrassing.
