Random things to do at breakfast - when your daughter asks what a donor cornea looks like and you find yourself cutting a tiny round piece off a roll of clingfilm for her to look at and touch and you hope that its about right because you've not ever seen a cornea before

I agree with what you wrote re the comments from the Dr yesterday and varying degrees of hydrops he May or May not have seen in the past.
