Re: Aly Tekipee Track commit
A truly inspiring story about a remarkable young woman. I have the highest respectd for Aly in many ways, especially wih regard to her eye condition, Keratoconus. I've had "unresolved and untreatable" keratoconus since 1998. It's a difficult condition to treat for many.

Treatable now with cross linking. Works well. Stopped the condition for a friend of mine last year. Another friend had to get new corneas as the treatment doesn’t reverse damage, just stops progress.grizzlyjournal wrote: ↑Wed May 15, 2019 1:50 pmA truly inspiring story about a remarkable young woman.

Thanks astutegriz. I'll pursue this, using the term cross linking. Much appreciated.astutegriz wrote: ↑Wed May 15, 2019 7:23 pmTreatable now with cross linking. Works well.
