Of all the ways I could have taken after my father, cataracts in my early 50s would not have been my first choice at all.
It's VERY hard for me to ask for help and just getting a drive to get checked combined with my general anxiety resulted in putting it off so long that both cataracts are ready, well, past ready, for surgery.
On a similar "hate to ask" point, I've got a coinsurance out of pocket looming. If you want to defray those costs, a print or a digital download from my Etsy would be a great form of support. Or you can message me for other options.
