Where Did Half of My Friends Go?

My niece Kendra was cross-eyed. Was cross-eyed. she recently had surgery to have it repaired, and the surgery was a fantastic success. The pictures here are a before and after of sorts. The before being made in November (Back-lit by the sun through stained glass, I might add) and the after was made about a week ago. Aside from a little bit of blood in the edges of her eyes (that will go away eventually) when seeing her now, you wouldn't even think of her being cross-eyed. The strangest thing is how utterly different she looks. She follows your movement, looks you right in the eye, and she looks like a brand new girl. It's a drastic, fantastic, change.
