Mr. SoS is falling apart. He has been having one malady (as he calls them) after another. There is the ongoing hair loss (or development of the Steve Seltz Spot) that we try to ignore, carpal tunnel from holding the baby, the neck fungus and the big issue is his ongoing eye redness and irritation. He has been going to his eye doctor for almost 5 months trying new drops and not wearing his contacts but to no avail. Yesterday he went to a new eye doctor who is a cornea specialist and wrote the first textbook for Lasik. Anyway, this doctor says that Jake must have had a virus in his eyes back in December and his white blood cells attacked that virus leaving abrasions/proteins on his cornea that may never go away and almost inflammation under eye lids. So, it's back to more drops and only glasses. The doctor said that he may not be able to wear contacts ever again and that Jake is a good candidate for this eye surgery called PRK which is kind of like Lasik but different. Personally, I think this was caused by endless hours of reading boring financial research about companies no has ever heard of. The good news is that if he does go blind we can just train Dorothy to be his Seeing Eye Dog, although I think she would only steer him to places with food. For now, it looks Mr. SoS is going to be one of those dudes with prescription sports goggles strapped to his head running around the tennis court.

HOT SO VERY HOT!
The good news is that my wrist and neck are getting better. Hair loss... not so much. I will probably get surgery for the eyes at some point, but until then I will look like the Angels bullpen over the past few years (almost all their relievers wore "stylish" sport glasses- it was kind of funny). Next thing you know is that I'll need a hip and knee replacement from running.
Those glasses are HOT!
