November 17, 1964, The Frances Hubbard Diaries

November 17, 1964
Tuesday, mostly cloudy, 30's, very light, fine snow, none on the ground.  I sewed in am.  Clifton and I went to Cobleskill and came back by Stamford.  David took Wayne to Cobleskill in am to have his eyes tested.  Did not need glasses.
Comment: Wayne was mostly blind in one eye. When about 6 years old, he was hitting two hammers together and a bit of steel flew off and hit him in his left eye. As he grew older the scar tissue grew more over his pupil blocking his vision.....here is him in the first grade, I think.....

No comments:

You're always young in your mind it is said, No matter the face in the mirror, That you see with surprise then say to yourself, "What is that old man doing here?"
