Is my husband going blind? It has been a week of so many ups and downs. It is constantly a journey of learning how to surrender in the face of some truly scary moments.

Im not going BLIND! This week has been one hell of week... or two. I am so glad to have you by in my life..

Lifted up prayers of healing to the Lord. Nothing is impossible with God.

You don't know who I am but I've watched and listened to your channel and I want you to know many people are sending prayers and positive energy to you both. With everything you have dealt with so far, cataracts seems almost a blessing in disguise, rather than an effect of the tumor. Sounds as if you're on a true healing path and I wish for you only the BEST on your journey. 💜🙏

Cataract surgery is a piece of cake. No pain! Quick recovery! Absolutely no worries!

The love the two of you have for each other is so special to witness. You can see and feel it. ❤ I’m glad you found eachother

Some people are so ignorant😡😡 Kyle looks great and not sure we can say he’s lucky to only have cataracts 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️but thank God that’s what’s going on. You have a higher power looking after you Kyle❣️❣️and a beautiful wife that is so loving. What an Angel. Good luck with your eye surgery and may God bless you both❤❤❤🙏🏼🙏🏼

Thank the Lord he is not going blind. Illness is hard for the patient and his family!

@tinacollins2055 2 years ago

Geeze! What a journey your two are traveling. On the upside, you have each other and the love you share 💕💕

Continuing to pray for you both. Thank God it was cataracts instead of going blind! Keep on praying about it. ❤

Although cataracts aren’t ideal, it is a phenomenal diagnosis. Phenomenal considering what You & Your husband continue to navigate. You both are beautiful souls.

What a roller-coaster ride you guys are on, but you received Great News: Cataracts — not the tumor — are the vision culprit! The Luck of the Irish!💚☘️💚☘️💚☘️💚☘️

When our daughter was 6 she had cataract surgery. It really can happen to any of us.

Hi Is your husband wearing optune? If so, I know my husband had type 4 glioblastoma multiforme. My husbands eyes were affected also. I wish you all the best and live in the moments with courage and hope.My husband loved life and we both never lost hope and cherished each moment.Through all the dr's appointments etc... Make time and take time and smell the flowers. ❤ Just doing normal things everyday. It is suprising how much it helped us take a breath and not let cancer diagnosis define our daily lives together.❤

I've had cataracts surgery......it's so easy! and at the end....you see clearly!!!! Don't get me wrong, any surgery is scary....fear of the unknown though. Once one eye is done....the second eye will be easy.

@loriwilcox10 2 years ago

I’ve been blind in my left eye my whole life.

Yikes you guys are going to age 30 years in a week with all the emotional stress!!!! SO glad the eyesight is not brain related!!! Blood is stabilizing. I agree with using Eastern and naturopathic means to support health, healing and general wellness!!❤❤❤

@Riptide1976 2 years ago

Thank God!!! It’s fixable!!! ❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I cant imagine what you have both been through in recent months. My aunt was on Keytruda too for lung cancer, it worked well for her. Each patient has his own reactions and challenges. The cancer journey is full of uncertainty , changes come quickly. Am glad the Chinese med worked. Here in Asia we combine eastern and western.

If you can afford it, try some traditonal chinese medicine and acupuncture. I have seen very good effects of them on tumors on the neck and on the brain.
