Andrew's Eye has Improved

It's been about a month and a half since Andrew got his glasses and we've been patching his eye for 6 hours a day. We were scheduled to go back to our eye specialist to see if there is any improvement in his right eye. The doctor was so happy with his improvement as well as how much better he can see with his glasses that the doctor said to decrease the hours of wearing the patch to 2 hours a day for the next month and then we are done with the patch.

Hallelujah!! I must say it's been frustrating to keep after Andrew with keeping his eye patch on and then to catch up to him to pin him down to put another one on I am certainly not going to miss. He was getting to the point where he would hide the box of eye patches in his room somewhere and when I'd go to look for them Andrew would say that they were not in his room. When he was so insistant that they weren't in his room it only made me look harder til I found them in his closet. The next day I found the box of patches underneath the bathroom counter.

I must say that Andrew's teachers have been awesome with keeping up with putting his patch back over his eye whenever he would remove it. We appreciate them all for helping with keeping Andrew's patch on.
