Guest guest Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 Hi Ellen- Sorry to hear about your discomfort with the cars. Maybe there's a way to figure this out-sorry I don't have any suggestions though. I am glad you wrote about it. Rasha has colobomas and I've never understood what it could mean to someone's vision. Your description is very clear so I thanks for sharing!
