Awe, the Gift of time...

Mr. Clark and I made a list of things we would do if we DIDN'T have to go on Dialysis.
and if he regains his eyesight back.
Yesterday we got word that if he maintains his diet and health like he did last month we can buy some time.
Even qualify for a Kidney Transplant.
OH WE ARE CELEBRATING!
For his eyes.
Our last appointment the Doctor said,
"if I hadn't seen them before I'd think I wasn't looking into the same eyes.
We have to feel a MIRACLE has happened.
We've seen where we were headed.
A wake up call for sure.
So bucket list here we come!
We feel like we've been given a little extension on our quality of life.
IT'S WORTH NO SALT, RENAL, NO POTASSIUM DIET!
We've seen how much "cheating" brings you down in a matter of day's.
I remember going through the last 5/10 years thinking his 'daily'
nausea and throwing up was just life.
Amazing what DIET can do.
He has not been sick since he went on this diet.
The attitude, "just a little bit won't hurt" doesn't work anymore!
TO LIFE.
AND THE GIFT OF TIME.
ALASKA HERE WE COME!
