HELLO MICHIGAN
Hi Everyone, remember when I asked you to pray for my son and his wife that they would get to Michigan? Well they are off to Vision Specialists of Michigan and Dr. Debbie for their eyes. They left this morning.
They are going to see if they are candidates for prism glasses. My son has suffered over the years with anxiety and it has affected his quality of life to the point that he can not hold down a full time job. It started when he was in the first grade.( If you read the one posting I did about a week ago, there was this one little boy whose symptoms started at birth.) Hyperphoria is not a respecter of persons it can start at any age. I hope this is finally his answer. His wife has had anxiety problems and physical problems over the years. Please pray that this is finally it and they are on their way to being the people the God always intended them to be.
I believe all of us want to be successful we just need a boost in the right direction. Lets not label everything mental and take the easy way out, seek a better answer.
I will keep you all posted on the outcome of their Michigan trip.

Just remember it's in your eyes not in your head. Take the hyperphoria test on the right.

Hi everybody, it is now Nov. 2014 about 7 months since my son and wife and grandson went to Michigan and were tested for hyperphoria at Vision Specialists of Michigan. I promised to tell you what happened and so here it is. My son's vision was one diopter off and his wife was 1 diopter off. My vision is 14 diopters off so you can see what a difference there is between me and them.They were both given glasses with a prism and any other problems associated with eye problems. My son saw improvement even with that bit of correction. My daughter in law saw improvement also but because of long standing health issues and other issues could not be helped. I was glad my son was not bad like me but wished for more of a reaction. The big surprise was their son my grandson
He did not have an appointment but when Dr. Debbie saw him. She knew there was something wrong just by looking at him. She examined him and made time for him. He was found to be cross eyed even though he didn't look like it. He had farsightedness and nearsightedness and needed one prism, he is only 8 years old.
He is having a hard time in school so I was absolutely thrilled with this finding. I thought at least he will have a start in the right direction in the years to come.
Well sadly to report this was not to be. He complained of the glasses even though I bought a second pair and does not want to wear them at all. I have talked to my son and his wife and told them the importance of him wearing his glasses but they have refused to parent their son in this regard. My hands are tied and I have to accept their reluctance in this matter and leave it be even though it breaks my heart.
That is my update because I want to be right up front with all of you because the important thing is being all that you can be. You have the choice it's called free will. Please choose to do all you can to improve your condition. Don't accept agoraphobia see what you can do. My son and his wife did not have bad hyperphoria so that was good. Not all problems stem from that there are other causes. The true agoraphobic will have a higher degree of hyperphoric correction. But having said that I would say that 98% of homebound agoraphobia is caused by hyperphoria symptoms.
Love to all of you, Yolanda
