Sad Day!

I have a really good friend in my parents ward that has lost all the sight in one of her eyes. She has struggled a long time with her eye sight, but she has the same problem as my grandma so I just thought her sight would be like my grandmas. Sadly that isn't how it happened. She has what is called Macular Degeneration. There are 2 types of this, one is wet and the other is dry. Pam and my grandma both have dry. There isn't a treatment for dry only wet. However, you can have dry and it turns to wet. When this happens you loose all sight in the eye that went wet. That is what happened to Pam. I'm so sorry for her! I love her and I hope she can deal with everything that has happened. Best of luck to everyone that is struggling with this!
