Acupuncture

Some of you might have already heard that Ray has been diagnosed with macular degeneration.  Which just means he may go blind one day.  He has already lost partial sight in his right eye and we have decided to try everything alternative that we can, since the doctor told him the following: "You have it, there is nothing we can do about it, and you will go blind since you got it at such a young age."  How encouraging is that.  Hence the acupuncture appointment.  I was really impressed with the accupuncturist and so was Ray (I was really worried about him freaking out).  We will be trying some other things also, like essential oils, cranial sacral massage and anything else we thing might be beneficial.  Ray told me he refused to let them put needles in his feet, but as you can see they did it anyway.
 
When I took this picture, he asked why I was taking a picture of his head, he didn't even realize he had these in.  Goes to show that they really don't hurt.  He was such a trooper!!
