On her birthday she had an eye appointment - what a way to celebrate! As soon as we walked into the office she was very excitedly greeted by the receptionist with a big 'Happy Birthday'. And in response she buried her head in my shoulder. The whole day when someone gave her a birthday greeting she responded 'no happy birthday'.
Then when she got called in for her appointment she was again greeted with another enthusiastic birthday greeting to which she buried her head again and said 'no happy birthday'.
The 'terrible twos' hit hard this day. She was so uncooperative at this appointment, refusing to identify any images close up or far away. She wouldn't talk to the lady doing the check up, and couldn't even be bribed with stickers. In the end she identified an image maybe four times, after a 30 minute struggle to get her to cooperate. The thought is there has been improvement, the limited images she identified were from a slightly farther distance and that was with little to no cooperation.
M is still full-time patching and wearing her contact.
Her next appointment is in another 5 weeks at the end of March with her surgeon again, and hopefully she's over the 'terrible twos' by then!
