Anyone that imagines that bliss is normal is going to waste a lot of time running around shouting that he's been robbed. Life is like an old time rail journey...delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride.--Gordon B. Hinckley

Ben & Bekah's Eye Appointment
Today I took Ben and Bekah to the eye doctor in Pocatello. Ben especially has been having some symptoms of eye problems. He appears to have a hard time seeing the computer screen at times and some of the words in books at times. I know that this can be a symptom of A-T as they start to lose control of their eye muscles. The doctor said that Ben's eyes looked great as far as vision, but he could tell that Ben was struggling to be able to focus on what he was looking at and would move his head to try and compensate for that struggle. Of coarse I was hoping that it was just a vision problem, but we will just have to make some accommodations as needed. Bekah, on the other hand, is still doing well with both her vision and ability to control her eye muscles.
