Sometimes safety glasses still don’t get the job done! This patient was able to get in the same day to see me for his urgent eye care needs (saving them a trip to urgent care where they might not receive timely or appropriate care).

Save the duckies (watch to the end)!!! Dr. Keith was headed to his optometry clinic when he heard the cries for help! 13 little duckies were trapped in the storm drain next to The Stella Hotel. Kenosha Community Service Officers quickly responded and saved the day! Dr. Keith then saw the duck family on their way to Cut Stone, lol (Special thanks to Sharon from the Copy Center for redirecting traffic).

Happy Mother's Day coming up soon! Oh, by the way, did you know that the founder of Mother's Day, Anna Jarvis, was arrested while protesting the commercialization of the holiday she created!? Very interesting!

And here are some interesting vision related facts for mom's (and their newborns):
At 1 month old, a newborn can see within 8 to 15 inches away.
At 5 months old, they'll move their eyes from person to person and view objects up to 3 feet away.
At 7-12 months old they can follow objects with just their eyes at near and far.
At 12-18 months they can watch their favorite to dropped into a container.

Red flags of *possible* vision issues in newborns:
-Eyes are crossed, turn in or out, shake constantly, or move independently of one another.
-Eye lid(s) droop to cover pupil.
-Pupil(s) look cloudy, white, misshapen, or different sizes.
-Eyes water constantly.

Thanks to Vision Forward for these fun facts. And thanks Anna Jarvis!

I've got to be my own motivational speaker sometimes. "Progress isn’t always steady, and slow periods are normal. Just keep putting in the effort because you believe in what you’re building."
Deep breath. And back at it.

Fun update time! Most book lovers wear glasses 🤓, and would love a fun way to clean those glasses. I've got just the thing! Large literary classic cleaning cloths. 😍 I'm in talks with Sam from Blue House Books about these beauties, so stay tuned for us to figure out the details.
For now, take a peek at the options and let me know which you would be most excited about.

Time for another shoutout from the Racine Aging and Disability Resource Center Special Needs Fair!

I connected with Speaking Life Speech Therapy & Wellness. They
prioritize a holistic, root-cause approach to speech therapy, going far beyond traditional training to look at how a person's overall development and environment can impact their voice. It’s excellent that their Mount Pleasant clinic is equipped to support the whole family, serving both children and adults.

My clinic operates on a similar belief that you can't rush through an exam and expect to understand the whole patient.

If you are a parent looking for deeper insights, their speech-language pathologist, Elyse Scheeler, hosts a wonderful podcast called "Speaking Life Into Motherhood." In it, Elyse offers genuine encouragement and real-life advice to help exhausted moms raising kids with special needs find a path to thriving.
