    The result was loss of sight in that eye because of cataracts

    Gotta love tropospheric ducting. I worked Florida routinely from Oak Island, NC before I sold my 2M rig.

    You just hang there and take care of yourself. Don't do like my Dad and think you'll eat whatever you want because that's what you've always eaten. He is 81 now, but he didn't do what the doctors told him to 15 years ago, and he is paying for it now, i.e. foot and eye problems.
