Corbusa, been there done that, the divorce part. Sorry to hear, I wouldn't wish it on anybody. Hang tough. -Steve

[Corbusa]

Thanks , mostly my fault . I was reaching the point of doing whatever it takes to make it work. Then... OOHH well I'm getting to old for this stuff / stupid life decisions etc.

Best part of my divorce, met my new wife. Terry, she's the best.

Well I hope the eye is OK so you can use it to look for the next woman in your life.

POF in the sea.

Good luck with the eye. I went thru that 2 years ago but all is good now. I hope you have as good of results as I did. Be patient and follow the docs advice. I had to sit on my couch with my head at a 45 deg. angle for 2 weeks. Don't know how i did it but I can see so it was worth it.

[Corbusa]

Thanks guys , 4 cam the DR. wants me face down for 3 weeks..My retina was shredded. One good thing about me and the soon X is we will be really good friends.

By the way Happy Birthday, and sorry for the situation you are in. I really feel for you brother!
Good thing to stay friends instead of an ugly bitter separation. You don't need any more stress right now. Just take care and be patient. For 2 day's I found out what it was like to be blind in one eye. It made the recovery real easy when you know what you could be facing the rest of your life if you don't do it right. I was able to watch TV with the good eye so netflix was my best friend. Get hooked on the show 24 or something like that and time passes pretty fast. My eye took about 6 months to stabilize after the initial 2 week recovery. I had to lay off going to the gym for quite a while which was very hard for me. Driving the Z was tough for a bit as the depth perception was not very good for a while. Just kept the speed down and I was OK.

Feel free to PM me if you have any questions. Its a good thing to talk to someone who has been thru it.

Good Luck

Ditto ( 4 -cam ) only having 1 eye sucks . Its been 3 days and still cant see out of it ( just a blurr ) . Ditto with the gym situation , I live to hit the weights ( I like heavy squats ) and now its a no mas workout for a while. I may have to lighten up and raise the reps. once I get back. I'm supposed to be back overseas in 7-8 weeks working. No income right now either =-'s an ouch .... Thanks

[rhipsher]

How long were you married to her? Any kids?

[scottfab]

Corbusa, I hate to say it but you know what they
say about clouds and silver linings.
When I went through divorce I kept the car and the lifestyle
and haven't looked back.
Never hold back someone that wants to move on. It does no one
any favors and I mean "no one".
Think of the other women you'd be depriving.............

[Corbusa]

No No Kids , she was married B 4 and had 2 teeens when I showed up. Been married 25 years this week.. She HATES living in the mountains and I cant stand living in a city ( when we moved that really started the decline) .
I am sooooo Independent and she wasnt until she left.. We've been living separated for a few years..
I'm sure not in am hurry to say " I DO " again .
