So... today I feel good, so I will tell you a story that may sound pretty boring but it changed my life.
So this started like 15 year's ago, when my sisters went to the doctor, 'cause they needed glasses, 'cause they didn't see that well, so I was a baby, and the doctor, said my eyes were weird, 'cause they were moving and moving like side to side, so quickly so he said that I had this disease, and that I needed glasses too, but my mom didn't wanted that I wear glasses since a young age, so when I was 6 I returned with the same doctor, and he gave me my very first pair of glasses, sometimes I didn't like to wear glasses, 'cause it's not comfortable, so I wore glasses for ten years, YES 10 years, and I stopped using them 'cause I went to surgery, to fix my problem, fortunately everything went well, but a month before I went to the operating room, I was so nervous, that I loss like 3 pounds, my hands were sweating almost all the time, and I was so sensitive to everything because I was scared.
I thought what if I need a transplant?, -the Dr. said it would be a high risk operation- what if the transplant never gets here?, what if I never get to see again?, what am I supposed to do?, I did know that the operation was the best option for me 'cause I've always had troubles to see the board, so I didn't wanted those problems again in high school, so the day I went the the operating room, I was shaking, my hands were cold, and the nurses didn't told me it was time to go, so I didn't talk to my parents till I got out, but when I was there, I felt, terrible, suddenly, everything got blurry, and sometimes went black, and I saw a needle, came straight to my eye, and I couldn't stopped it, so I had to hold on the teddy bear the nurse gave me to tight I almost choke him in a figurative sense of course, and them the laser started, I was feeling this hot thing inside my eye, that actually burned my eye, and it was a painful part of the thing, and I smelled like burned meat, 'cause the laser was burning my eyes, then the laser stopped, and the nurse put me these weird drops of medicine in my eyes, that made me felt like if someone put me a chili in my eye!, and the the Dr. told me a lot of thing I had to do for the taking care of my eyes 'cause he had to go, and I was like WTH?, I mean I just survived these freak thing and now you tell me this?, anyway I got out and everything seemed so blurry and... whats the word? like soft, or something and my eyes were so swollen and, I went through a lot of pain there, so I was happy 'cause then I could go home.
The weirdest thing is that the operation only lasted for like 20 minutes and it felted like hours!, I didn't believe how quickly I got out 'cause I thought I'd taken longer there, so I went with my parent well they came to me, 'cause I couldn't see well, and they took me home, and then I fall asleep, with my "goggles", -protectors-, and I woke up and I was like?, what? how could this thing ever happened to me?, I couldn't believe I was safe.
So I learned that even you feel, so bad, and you think everything is going to come in a bad way, is not, 'cause there's someone watching you, and also, I have great parents that care about me, but what is they didn't?. so I pray, 'cause I knew I have to thank god, that everything came well.
Now I don't use glasses, and I can see the board, sometimes I feel odd, 'cause, I've always wore them, it's like somethings missing, but I'm so much better now, and I have to say you guys that if you're healthy please consider the organs donation when you died, I have though about it, 'cause there are hundreds and hundreds of people, that needs maybe a kidney, a heart, a I don't know, and they might died 'cause only the 6% (In Mexico) donates their organs when they die, so I think it's a good thing to do and to think about it.
So I wanted to tell you that, 'cause its liberating for me, now I'm better 'cause I told you my story. thanks to all the ones who keep reading my blog, Im glad you do!.
Reporting from Mexico, in a windy-cloudy day, giraffe's off.
