Now in her late forties,my mum is still vivacious and adventurous but the problem is her visual capabilities.
She can do a lot of things like soap making,tailoring and business (buying and selling) but you would agree with me that, you can really do little with a bad eyesight.
Please my people, which other ways can I engage my mum maximally since she really needs her eyes to do the other things I listed above.
I believe she can still see very well again.
Some doctors suggested we fly her to India where she can receive expert medical treatment but, owo mi ti kekere.
This woman pampered and prayed for me even when doctors and friends wrote me off.
My heart really bleeds for her because I feel she is in pains psychologically though she acts fine most times.
There are days when she sees a bit clearly and other days when it seems like a fog is covering her eyes.

Kobojunkie:
Your mother is in her late 40s and she does not know what to do for herself and her failing vision?.

[b] I recommend you start by taking her to a mental health therapist so she can address whatever is keeping her from doing better for herself in this day and age. [b]

By the way, you didn't mention exactly what it is that is wrong with her eyesight. What was her diagnosis..

DyingFetus:

Foodqueen:

Are there really mad people on this forum or what? Mental health therapy? Are you kidding me? I think you need this therapy more than her mom. She's complaining of her mom's visual predicament and you are here talking about therapy.

Next time, read we before you dish out rubbish!

■ Kobs, your first paragraph was really harsh.I pray you don't find yourself in such situation.
■ We've gotten various diagnosis like
■ glaucoma, cataracts,low vision etc

Ensa777:
Take her to General hospital Calabar.
Their rate is highly subsidized and expert care is received.

Kobojunkie:
A 40-something year old woman in this day and age who doesn't know the way to the doctor or psychiatrist when sick needs to go get her head checked immediately. That is just the reality of the world we are born into.

2. Even my own mother who is many decades only than your mother knew where to turn when the same problem --- Glaucoma --- hit her in her late 50s. Stop making excuses abeg and get her engaged in reality of life today. If she is still internet illiterate then put her in front of a machine all day until she learns. How can I make excuses for someone of that age? Abegi

By the way, you don't even seem to know exactly what her diagnosis is, how come? You mean she still hasn't visited an eye doctor or what?

Nice2023:
If u are in Lagos state,take ur mum to Catholic eye hospital at Agege. That's where my mum had her eye operation for same blurry vision and today,she can see clearly and better.

My sister had her eye operation at Aba in Abia state. It was done by an indian doctor and they were all successful.

Take your mum to Agege and locate the only Catholic hospital there pls.

Wishing her the best.

Sonofconsolatio:

Thanks brother.
Pls between the two you mentioned above,which hospital offered the best service?
Do you know if the one in ABA is still as good as it was then?
This japa syndrome is really giving me a scare

Nice2023:



For that of Aba,the Indian doctor visited and my sister heard of it and she went down and paid the necessary bills and the operation went successfully well.

Sonofconsolatio:
I'll let the scathing remarks slide Kobo, you need your eyes to function effectively on the internet. The different diagnosis is discouraging. Asides from the internet ,are there other things she can do keep herself busy.

Happy day family
I've been a ghost reader on nairaland for almost 12 years now. Favourite section is the literature section . Matter of fact, I found nairaland while searching for novels online. Literature landers would recall when the likes of Audrey Tims and her ilk held sway(great moments)
To cut to the chase, I'm an introvert but very adventurous. I discovered that I got these hyperactivity from my mum. Now in her late forties,my mum is still vivacious and adventurous but the problem is her visual capabilities.

Please Nlfp,Dominique,justwise, help me move this to the front page. Mama is emotionally distraught.
