Here is a page Trenna made about two eye problems she encountered.
Everyone is welcome to read the post, but it doesn’t contain any funny or poignant stories. I’m just trying to pass on some information Trenna accumulated in case it is of use to anyone else.
Maybe in the future it has historical benefit as well. Who knows!

I’ve tossed around in my head what to do with Trenna’s extensive medical records.
They mainly comprise the detailed notes she would make at the end of almost all consultations with medical professionals. At first she hand wrote them on A5 pieces of paper (actually hand written on the back of bits of paper that otherwise would have ended in the recycling bin).
