Failed Ishihara Test - can I still get a PPL?

Hi all,
I am 36 years old and I have been having a life-long ambition of being a pilot. However all my chances even before going to a flight school were shattered as I failed very badly on the Ishihara Test and I had a squint. I got my squint fixed however I still can't see pass page one of the Ishihara Test. Additionally I actually have some difficulty with locating an object in space as my hand eye coordination is also not very good!
I know this sounds way too gone already but I want to know is there even a slim chance of at least getting a PPL so that I could fly a Cesna?
Btw I can see very well, it's just my color and 3D vision is not good.

Diabetic and glaucoma

Hi all, I recently visited my Ophthalmologists and she said I show early signs of glaucoma. She said my optic nerves are larger and asked me to come back for more tests.. I did my eye exams about 2 years (or less) ago but this was not observed back then. I also have type 1.5 LADA diabetics so things are a bit complicated as well..
Would anyone have any information or advise on this on how to stop worrying about this or what steps I should take to make things better?
Any advise is warmly welcome :)
Thank you.

Cafés similar to Pineridge Hollow

Hi all, I’m looking for some cafes which are similar to Pineridge Hollow. Would be ideal if the drive is under one hour from the city.
Wife is currently pregnant so want to take her out for a little drive and some good food.

Looking for some great recommendations!

I’m using a Libre 2 CGM and I have seen it been not very accurate compared to the finger prick machine.

Today my CGM showed a 2.3mmol/L and when checked whit the finger prick machine it showed 9.6mmol/L.

My question is, have you’ll experienced something similar and if yes, what would be the reason behind it?

Hi all, I want to ask, in regards to proof of funds should I show the lump sum of money in my bank account? Or can I just show my NOA and pay slips and bank deposits of the pay?

I don’t have a lump sum of money in my account however I’m well above the low income cutoff.

Thanks.
