Hi all and Robin, thank you SO much for all of the great feedback.
As my previous posts state, the lenses "Stopped working" yesterday,
but today it all came back, it was fabulous! I read and read and
read. I also scored 20 points higher on a practice LSAT exam, the
best news ever! I am keeping a journal of everything that is
happening. This is the most wonderful thing that has ever happened
for me and the amount of things it changes in life are uncountable.
I feel so much less anxiety, I don't loose things every ten minutes,
while driving I can look around rather than right over the hood to
the pavement. Information about everything from an LSAT exam to the
details of a leaf seem to burn into my brain like a laser.
Previously, information felt like it could instintly fly away and it
took a lot of work to hang on to any detail.
I have only a few minutes of computer time each day for the next
couple of weeks so I am using this message board to answer all of the
great emails everyone has sent. Your stories and suggestions are
invaluable. Keep writing, thank you!
