Anne Holmes Boomer in Chief Registered: 03/11/10 Posts: 3212 Loc: Illinois	I just saw this interesting article in the Chicago Tribune about Boomers and macular degeneration. I found it interesting, because my mother has age-related macular degeneration and I'm told that means a greater chance that I and my sibs might eventually get it. Here's the article Has anyone heard anything about this from their own eye doctors? _________________________ Boomer in Chief of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com www.boomerlifestyle.com www.boomerco.com

We've been checked all thru our lives and not of us have signs. However, we've all worn glasses since childhood. Wonder why it happens later on in "boomers'" lives now. As kids, we learned to live with a disabled Dad. Mom used to say "Your dad can see more than you know"! He's done extremely well, had to stop driving in the late 60's and Mom had to get her licenses in her 30s to take over. _________________________ Southwest Body Gear here ~ NEWLY updated website with many new products!
