oxio - I am so very sorry to hear about that buddy. Really. image

And yes, I know that my baldness is not so bad now. It IS a very difficult thing for a 21 year old to deal with, but I know that things could be so much worse and I have a positive outlook. Like I said, things that are troubling you are all a matter of perspective. When my girlfriend and I separated at the beginning of college I was so depressed, and I thought that if only I could have her back I would never be sad again! Oh, the perspective and wisdom I have gained since then. image

As a budding journalist and writer, having even a few mobile floaters could be terrible for me. I have many years ahead of me or reading and writing text on bright computer monitors, and my concentration will be very important! Also, I have talked to my parents about my condition and they have said that if, in the future if there is some medical procedure that can help they will gladly help me pay. This is very comforting to know. I described floaters to my dad and then sent him a "simulation" video on Youtube and my mom said his face nearly went green!
