Surgery for Jason

It's been a very long few months, but the time came for Jason to have surgery on his bad eye to see if they can restore his sight... we went to a new doctor to get a second opinion because we didn't like being told that there was no hope for Jason's sight.

After 2 completely random recommendations, we went to see the most amazing Doctor called Doctor Nash.  He took one look at Jason and wanted to try to do surgery to restore his sight.

The day came... I took Jason into Swedish Hospital in Seattle and hung around with him till he went in.  It was at the same time that my parents were here, so they looked after Kayle for us.

My sweet man was very nervous before he went in!

Jason got all marked up before he went in!

Jason was in surgery for about an hour or so... unfortunately the surgery was not successful.  His retina was too damaged so he will never see out of his eye again.  It was extremely upsetting and disappointing  but at least we can now move on with our lives and get things back to normal!

We are so grateful to Doctor Nash for even trying... he didn't charge us for his time or services either!
