On the positive side, I have just completed going through the galley proofs of my Selected Poems 1959-2008 — amazing how you pick up things on the zillionth go-through — & will shortly be sending the corrected pages off for publication.
On the negative side, I have just discovered why my eyesight has been getting more shithouse of late — cataracts have developed in both eyes, & I'll be needing an operation to remove them.

huzzah & sorry.
Well, the "good" news is that cataract surgery has become very mundane, almost as much as heart surgery. My inlaws had their surgeries videotaped, which was pretty interesting--and quick.
Buena suerte, amigo.

all of the above seconded. take care mark . . .
I can't wait for the book. As Geof says, cataract surgery is very common now, so you should be fine (my sister is an ophtalmologist... I grew up surrounded by images of cataracts).
Take it easy. It will be such a relief when it's all done, you'll see! ;)
Abrazo largo.
