I got an endoscopy today with a scope ultrasound of my pancreas and liver-I had asked my new doc if he could tell me my chances of needing a new liver so we did a procedure to find out how healthy of a condition I’m in. All my varices are gone and he told me when I woke that in the four years I’ve been sober I’ve pretty much reversed my liver cirrhosis. If I abstain from alcohol and continue to live the healthy lifestyle I’ve been living, I won’t need a liver transplant in this lifetime. Until this point I didn’t realize how subconsciously over the past four years I’ve been living in the now. Putting 1% in my 401k and not really saving any money as I honestly didn’t think I’d see past the age of 50. Living in the moment and just enjoying myself-truly. I never let myself fully digest the idea of living with a cirrhotic liver because it was too scary-too overwhelming. Well, the sigh of relief I took this morning was huge. Sober life is the best life and take it from me, it will reward you in ways you never thought were possible.
