She swivels her head, steely determination in her eyes. “I won’t tell them a thing,” Laurel says from the living room, proving she’s not as oblivious as I thought. Make her understand she can’t tell them anything, or else I can’t stop other monsters.” “Make Laurel understand she can’t tell the cops I’m a woman.
She bats away fresh tears, looking over at the little girl, who is eating gratefully, oblivious to our conversation. And no one innocent will get caught in the crosshairs.” They’ll quake in fear every time the lights go off. They wanted to pretend it just didn’t exist.”Ī dark smile takes over my lips. No one wanted to be bothered with something so horribly, inconceivably evil. With any luck, the bastard will kill himself within the year when he’s homeless, penniless, and pointless. Jake has already started the process of ruining him, starting with bankruptcy. Antonio is on my list, but not for death. She nods, her strength renewing as she angrily bats her tears away. I tried to tell everyone, but no one wanted to listen. Her face changes, a coldness washing over her. Anyone with persistent vision problems should schedule an evaluation with an ophthalmologist or an optometrist so it can be corrected.“You lost a lot trying to get me and my brother justice.” I’m glad something you read here made your life better.īecause good vision is increasingly important in our tech-focused world, it is to everyone’s benefit to have an eye examination once a year. Thank you.ĭEAR BOB: Among other things, my column is sometimes a community bulletin board. Your column reaches a lot of people, and it would be nice if you could mention this again to help others the way you helped me. Children can be given exercises to correct it, but the older a person gets, the less likely the exercises will help. Many people have been diagnosed with this problem, but I’m sure a lot more have not been diagnosed. I went to an eye doctor who prescribed “prism” glasses, which made reading much easier. I was 61 years old when I saw that letter in your column. It was difficult, but I taught myself to focus on each word before moving to the next one. In 1980, after I had a family, I started night school.
She insisted I was lazy, and believed corporal punishment would make me study harder. He recommended more tests, but Mom reasoned they would find nothing and be a waste of money. The doctor gave me the standard eye chart test, which showed nothing. A teacher once suggested my mother have my eyes checked. I would get headaches from reading and did poorly in school. I had that problem, but I never knew what it was. It came from a woman saying her daughter had “convergence insufficiency disorder,” in which the eye drifts and causes double vision.
DEAR ABBY: I want to thank you for a letter you published in 2007.
