  1. I am by nature a positive person. Even so, I have my anxious times because of my diagnosis. I recently had my annual eye exam by my optometrist. I was anxious the day of the exam. My biggest fear is the loss of my drivers license. Whenever I feel fearful or anxious I turn to my faith in God. I read the Bible, spend time in prayer, & sing hymns. This always restores my peace of mind. I know I will be okay. Sharon Moore
