How long do you have to wear it, or do you know? I wish I could share your discomfort somehow to make your load lighter.<br /><br />And sorry to hear about your dad. When it rains, it pours, as mom always said. I'm sorry you can't visit him.<br /><br />I just had a thought...can your family get you some audio books to listen to while you're in the eye patch? Lots of your mysteries are probably available that way. Just a thought to help your days pass while you're sewing.

You would think they could make it custom fitted to the contours of your face!! ;) It does sound like a very uncomfortable wrap. I can imagine what you must look like with all the bruising.

The eye patch looks pretty "primitive" and I'm betting all of us quilters and sewers are thinking of ways to redesign the thing for greater comfort while not sacrificing function. Better shape, velcro straps to hold glasses, cheery fabric covers...something Wanda-ful! I'm not suggesting you tackle this, but I do see an opportunity for someone to get more creative in designing these things.NeverBoredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17864997245809631313noreply@blogger.com
