Forgot to ask was that a Vitrius detachment surgery? Were you seeing clear globs of jell in your vision when you looked side to side? Thats what I'm having.
I'm having a few issues with my retina and was prescribed steroid eye drops. I had a really bad reaction , extremely dizzy, nauseous, difficulty catching my breath, but the worst was I could smell & taste the medicinal qualities of the eye drops. It was disgusting. Good to hear that your eye treatment is working out. Perhaps having the right side of your face numbed is causing swelling on that side? Take care Carolyn and just take it easy. Really nice to have Ron around for support.
Praying for your fast healing. 🙏 Thank God you say it doesn't hurt......looks painful. Thank God for Ron. It's a blessing to have someone to share your life with and support each other. ✨💖✨
I hope you feel better soon. Will wait for your eye to get better although you said you were seeing better now. I don’t know anything about the peel so I am hoping that it goes the way you want
Ouch!! I've wanted to do a peel. But... it looks painful. I feel pretty young. I will be 67 in August. Now in October I broke my foot, my daughter's wedding, yes I had a few. I do not drink, so I'm a lightweight. But my knee give out on me. Then last month i fell cleaning, moved a basket and forgot I put it there and tripped, broke my wrist. Two for two. Pray there's no 3th time. I'm tired. Anyway i hope you heal up and feel as beautiful as you are. I know we hate that getting old thang. But I'm trying to just embrace it. Lol Right!! Love you girl. Hugs. I do admire you. ♥️🌹😁👍🏼
Okay, there was one particular look you gave the camera while still under the effect of the anesthesia. I had to laugh! That’s why the docs sh not to sign any important documents for 24 hours! WOW…that peel looked painful, especially the ankle, even though you said it only hurt when you walk! I had to use Efudex once o n my face, and it really hurt. I hope you heal quickly, get that other eye over and done with, and fad away that sad tattoo. That was not well done at all.😢 Thanks for sharing the reality of life, even though you were hiding behind a partial mask, oooh that was a pun! You are amazingly beautiful, even with all that you have going on on with the peel and your eye. Just think how great your vision is going to be! ❤️
Dear Carolyn, poor thing, it is really terrible to have anything done in your eyes. I have had surgeries in my eye, it sucks, also I have had a couple of those terrible injections that go straight into your eye, good grief, I didn’t lime it. !!!! Feel better, please. ❤❤❤
Oh, Caroline. It looks so painful, I am truly happy to hear it doesn't hurt. HooRay for Ron--He is your angel! Sending prayers and good thoughts for healing.
susanstrickland6774 I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2019. Husband (now ex) of 32 years was NOT there for me. NOT AT ALL. Complained about having to drive me to my partial mastectomy because he had to take time off work? REALLY? Now getting used to being single again. Guess what, now I am having new friends, a social life, and FUN!!!!! Carolyn is very blessed to have Ron in her life! He is a good man.
Oh my goodness woman..The things in life you go through and share...God bless you..this video makes me laugh..your funny.😅 Glad your not in pain and Ron was there to help you! I need to get a cataract taken out..thats scary enough! Did you ever try Retin-A aka Tretinoin?
Had cataract surgery last year. Went well, no complications and much greater clarity. Had Carolyn's surgery the year before. No complications but I didn't get the improvement I hoped for. Seventy-two and expecting to go down swinging ...
I hope you feel better soon Carolyn. You are a adult. So what if you were having a drink or many. We are allowed to do that after age 21 so the laws say. Check labels on lotions to make sure it does not have an alcohol. Pure lower shelf Vitamin E and pure cocoa butter are good. Vaseline with cocoa butter is good to keep dirt from your dry skin area that is burning. I use those on dry cracked open cut skin. Hi Ron. Thank you for helping Carolyn out.
I'm happy you'll be able to see better. Some years ago I had cataract surgery that went horribly wrong. I understand about being able to see better. That face peel looks like torture!! LOL
Depends on how dark the brown spot is. For bad brown spots, you may need laser treatments. You could try doing a peel every few months if one doesn’t do it. Just make sure to stay out of the sun or make sure you’re using 50 spf and wearing a wide brim hat.
Yes, it can remove dark spots but if you are new to peels, start off with a low strength tca till you get comfortable with how they work and after doing a few, gradually increase the strength of tca or "layer" a lower strength one.
What kind of chemical peel did you put on your face? I thought that stuff was done at the doctor's office. The tattoo looks inflamed and painful. Did you have cataract surgery? Your eye looks so bloody. You've been through a lot. Sending you best wishes for a speedy recovery. Next time we see you, you'll look like a new girl.
You crack me up girl. I thought that you were showing us part of you costume/makeup for a new scifi movie or something there for a moment......lol! Continue to heal......we luv ya girlfriend and wish you all the best!!!
Carolyn on Mothers day I turned 75 and excited about it. I event told a couple of young guys at the store and they both said I didn't look 75. Oh boy huh and no make up either. I sure hope that when your face peals it is what you want as that is a lot of work. Every once in awhile I use plane Aloe Vera Gel. For your ankle you might want to use Antibiotic cream+Pain Relief. I get the Equate brand from Walmart for burns. Much Love and Hugs.
Thank you so much for your public service announcement of fear and courage and have helped conquer fears others may have and your uplifting spirits and explanation was fantastic to hear to help have the courage and the same successes you've had. Thank you for your candidness and thinking of others who are concerned about you. Love your show.
Are you a gluten for punishment? The eye procedure removes floaters? I need to sign up right away. I have so many floaters, it is a miracle I can see through them all. I'm hoping you heal quickly, and I'm glad to hear you are not hurting. Both procedures look painful to me. Personally, I don't know anything about either of the procedures especially the chemical peel. Is it expensive? And does any insurance cover any of either one ? Thank you so much for sharing your experiences. And thank you Ron for caring for our dear Carolyn. ❤❤
Be careful Carolyn don’t do so many procedures all at once to yourself. Your body needs to heal from each and everything. By doing so many procedures all together is really hard on your body. Because when it’s all said and done, It’s not what’s on the outside that counts. It’s who you are as a person, and how you treat people is what really matters. That is what is remembered.
Castor oil has helped the age spots on the back of my hands since I moved to Arizona. I never had them when I lived in Wa. That was smart of you to do the peel after your surgery since you would be homebound for a while. Happy healing 🤩
Kudos to you for having the guts to do the chemical peel, etc.! I think I'll just keep looking like an old lady - too chicken 💩 to try that stuff. I did break down and use sunscreen on my face today as a concession to aging. 🤣
I'm a chicken when it comes to pain. Watching this was hard for me but I did it. You are so brave. I'm happy for your eye improvement & can't wait to see the peal results. 🐔🐔🐔🐓
When you were talking about your hair matching the bandage 🤣🤣🤣 that’s the anesthesia talking ha ha. Always makes ya focus on odd things that anesthesia lol. You’re too cute !
Are you sure you didn't have Cadillac surgery? 🤣🤣 You know I'm sending you my best wishes for a speedy recovery without any complications. Really glad you've got Ron to help. 😁😁😎😎👍👍
I want you to study your video just before your surgery and after. Your head shaking before surgery disappeared after surgery. That anesthesia had a great effect on the tremors. They completely disappeared.
I had a cataract operation and vitrectomy done at the same time with only local anesthetic and a type of benzo a couple of years ago. Kind of glad I didn't get knocked out because recovery from that alone is awful. I was thoroughly miserable for a few days. The eye patch was sooo annoying. Great results though.
It sure sucks to get old. I have my theory on why God set it up for elderly people to look like hell. No I am not saying you look bad. I am referring to the aging process and elderly people in general. Here is my take on the condition of aging. I think it was Gods way of discouraging young people from marrying or taking old people as mates since none of us are supposed to live forever and only have a certain amount of time on this earth to pro-create and keep our species going. Just think how devastating it would be if people could not tell the difference between somebody that was 26 years old and somebody that was 100 years old. A woman could fall in love with a hot sexy dude and then turn around and find out he is 97 years old and ready to kick the bucket. So you see, this is why God wants us to be able to tell the difference between the young and the old. I hope this helps or at least gives you a good laugh even though its the true. Please dont take this the wrong way. I dont think you look bad for your age. You are still attractive. Yes you look better when you are all dolled up, but that is true for us all. Im just saying.
You are one tuff Cookie . Take care of yourself Caroline ❤
That looks so painful. Poor u. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
DANG! You have a lot going on Carolyn. I think that you like to torture yourself! LOL .. Wishing you all the best!
self inflicted pain 😱 hope u get the results you are hoping for.
Heal quickly. You were hilarious post surgery.
Oh gosh. You poor thing. I'm so glad you don't have pain. I hope you feel better soon.❤❤.
Been awhile scince I have seen you. I hope that everything comes out great.
Hi Carolyn, You went through a lot. I 'm praying that you get the results that you desire. You are very brave. Best of Luck, Louise
Wow, I couldn't tell you weren't wearing make-up. You look fabulous as always❤
Oh thank you!
Don’t think I would have done peeling till eye and meds they used for that totally out of your system
Forgot to ask was that a Vitrius detachment surgery? Were you seeing clear globs of jell in your vision when you looked side to side? Thats what I'm having.
It's called a Vitrectomy
Why would you do a chemical peel days after eye surgery?!?! Your body is trying to heal your eye. Now your face! 🤦♀️
Thought the same but this lady is strong stuff -seen it before -she just brings it on
Are we having fun yet? Lordy girl, you have been through the wars. Hugs.
✨🍃Your are very brave CC❣️🌿I would not be able to go threw with it🌿💞🌸🍃I knew it would be a success🕊️✨🌿👏🏼
Healing prayers! Love the red upholstery in Ron’s vehicle

Heal up quickly
Carolyn dear - STOP touching it
😅 right...
I hope you get the best results from your eye surgery. Chemical peels can do a lot. Wear that sunscreen if you’re outside or even in the car. Xoxo 😘
Oh yes, always. I'm really careful about that. Tomorrow's my pool day but I wear #70, and I'll put my hat over my face.
thank goodness for ron
Carolyn, I remember when you went through the peel on your face for “another reason” and that seemed much worse than this. No apologies necessary.
Yeah, that was pretty awful.
I hope you feel better soon. Will wait for your eye to get better although you said you were seeing better now. I don’t know anything about the peel so I am hoping that it goes the way you want
Caravan Carolyn Rocks!
Rob Cue rocks!
Rob Cue you rock and so does Lady Carolyn 🥰🙏💙
Get well soon!
Glad it doesn’t hurt🙏🏻
So glad your on the mend and Ron is there for you❣️
Thanks so much

What a trooper Carolyn, you just go with the flo😊😊w
😂 oh Carolyn ❤❤❤❤❤
... heal fast .... you're so funny lmao ...
Love you girl ⚘️ 😁😁😁💕💕🌸
Muah!
Isn’t it amazing what old women do to try to look better? 79 and accepting what nature has given me….NO PAIN INVOLVED 😘
You do you!

I wondered if it hurt
Ouch!! Glad the eye is ok. The rest looks sore. Heal well, and be kind to yourself. Nice of Ron to be there for you. 🙂👍

Your a "ROCK STAR" as always 😁
Oh my goodness woman..The things in life you go through and share...God bless you..this video makes me laugh..your funny.😅 Glad your not in pain and Ron was there to help you! I need to get a cataract taken out..thats scary enough!
Did you ever try Retin-A aka Tretinoin?
I use it occasionally.
@CaravanCarolyn I'm going to send you an email.. I've been using a couple things I'll share with you..👍
Nap time, cyborg
🤣
Thats a lot to go through all at one time! I hope it heals up fast.
Why do you do that to yourself, age gracefully and you will look great.
I am supposed to have Cadarac Surgery soon, and I am scared because I only see out of 1 eye now.
This wasn't that.
Had cataract surgery last year. Went well, no complications and much greater clarity. Had Carolyn's surgery the year before. No complications but I didn't get the improvement I hoped for. Seventy-two and expecting to go down swinging ...

👍
Keep it moist with Aquaphor or vaseline. Dont let it dry out. It will help it heal.
That's what I'm using. 👍
Dear lord my friend! Hope you heal quickly & the procedure improves your vision! Heal quickly!
Thank you, I will
I'm happy you'll be able to see better. Some years ago I had cataract surgery that went horribly wrong. I understand about being able to see better. That face peel looks like torture!! LOL

No not cataract surgery. I used 50% TCA
Girl you're getting all the boo boos done at once. Good luck.❤
You crack me up girl. I thought that you were showing us part of you costume/makeup for a new scifi movie or something there for a moment......lol! Continue to heal......we luv ya girlfriend and wish you all the best!!!
😘
Carolyn, where did you get the stuff to do a peel. Could you tell me the name of the product,please. Thank you
TCA 50%
Cool! I love what surgeons can do now?!
Me too!

Getting old sucks but the alternative is always worse :)
Exactly
I just had laser clean up today on my right eye.. clouds all gone. Left eye next week.
Nice!

Thank you! 😊

Insurance paid for most of the eye surgery. My portion was $176. Chemical peels are purely cosmetic so I paid for that.
Ummm, that would be “glutton”
When I had it done it was painful. What did you use and where did you have it done.
50%TCA. It was VERY painful.
Oh my gosh…I’ll be glad when this is over..I can’t take looking at your pain….i know you will look great soon😊
Fingers crossed! 😁
Looks like it hurts....
What brand chemical peal did you use?
50% TCA
Hi Carolyn!
Great to see you! Just think when your all peeled & your eye is all heeled, your'll be MORE GORGEOUS!! Miss seeing you!
I hope so! 😃
Here's to fast healing.
I ordered a peel but haven't tried it yet😮curious to see your results 😊
You such a trip!!
Great video

Rest up, ole dearie! It looks like you've been through a lot!
A couple uncomfortable days but I'm good!
Cateracts the latest thing for elders one of which I am. 😊 In the UK.got to have both of mine done. But not in a hurry.
This wasn't about cataracts.
@@CaravanCarolynDid you have a membrane in your eye? That's what I have in addition to the beginning of cataracts.
@@too-girly It was to take out the vitreous gel out of my eyeball. Vitrectomy.
Your slurrimg!! Lol..poor Carolyn. Sucks to get old, I know.Thank God you have Ron..
Carolyn had surgery so of course there are side effects from anastasia -u wld b the same
I think it's great to get old. I'm only 61 but I'm so happy to retire. Nursing was toxic for me.
My goodness, you've gone through so much. Bless your heart (not in a bad way 🤭)
