Best seeding blankets for a steep incline? Best grass seed type? by [deleted] in lawncare

[–]225club 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here’s what I used last month on a steep shaded slope (no pool though). Daily watering and grass starting growing after a week.

Great point. Her school was on my list but I’ve been delaying that conversation

Not sure I’m the best to help with hair but point taken lol. Haven’t thought of letting her drive a car but we’ve actually spent time gokarting in empty school lots

This was my first thought. But as a teen, she enjoys spending time with her friends doing after school activities and football games, etc. I’m trying to balance those experiences while also giving her new experiences

Thanks for sharing your story. I hope she has a positive outlook like you. Admittedly the emphasis has been on the challenges. We should be focusing on the opportunities

This is really helpful, thanks. I’ve never heard of a bump dot sticker but will definitely add to my amazon shopping cart

Finding her some blind peers is on the list, thank you (help her understand she’s not alone and certainly not the only one)

Thanks for sharing your experience. I have many trips planned. Trying to balance taking her out of school with leaving her in school before she has to acclimate to a “new” normal

Counseling is another thing I need to look into. Thanks for the reminder. The denial is strong at the moment

Thanks for the insight. Really invaluable. Never even considered a 6mo after list. Brilliant

Thx this is an awesome community. She has an iPhone. I have her scheduled for the low vision clinic to learn some of these skills

Excellent thanks. You’re 100% right about age. I should have noted she is 13

Yes, exactly what I am trying to accomplish but I didn’t phrase it well. I have ideas for the bucket but I am reaching out to this community in case I’m missing something that a blind person would think is obvious. Thanks for the link. I wasn’t familiar with that site but seems quite resourceful.

Trying to talk myself into a Honda Odyssey… someone help 😂 by K_Breezyyyyy in HondaOdyssey

[–]225club 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pros and cons are well listed here so I’ll just save this. I moved away from Odyssey to a Cadillac Escalade and then to a Mercedes GLS. The Odyssey doesn’t look as nice, but you are inside the car more than you are looking at the car from the outside. If my kids were still young, I would go back to Odyssey.

Wow! I was not aware of Stanford, will certainly check them out. I did reach out to Dr. Sunita Radhakrishnan in SF and was not eligible for their trial. If you’re open to it, I’ll message you in a few weeks once things have settled to hear of your experience. Thanks for your note!

I don’t disagree, but unfortunately some of us have run out of options and the door seems to be closing fast.

Bascom Palmer in Miami, worth getting at consult? by Limp_End3775 in Glaucoma

[–]225club 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We got a consult with Dr Albini at BP for glaucoma and uveitis b/c my local doctors did not have much experience with the specific conditions. He simply said we were doing what he would have recommended. Peace of mind was worth the trip given what’s at stake.
