Tina:  I hope all goes smoothly with the cataract surgery.  It usually 
does.  I remember how clear and less yellow my vision looked after the 
surgery, compared with before.

For Plantar Fasciitis, I use "heel cups" in my shoes that don't have an 
appreciable raised heel.  The best ones (IMO) are made by Spenco, and 
can be found in sports that sell sports shoes. Another trick that helped 
me, especially when out walking:  When you start to feel pain, try 
walking on tiptoes for a few steps--it sometimes makes the pain go away 
for a while.  Repeat as needed.

As my late father-in-law would say, in his thick Russian accent: "They 
call it the 'aging process.' Suuuuuure."
