Its been almost 5 years since we had my scare. I went in for a normal eye exam, to find out it wasnt going to be nothing normal about it. They found my right optical nerve swollen. That is when the roller coaster started, they sent me in for another eye exam with a specialist nothing, went for MRI nothing, spianl tap nothing, so at this point they are telling me I had a brain tumor, OK but the test is coming back negative, so they ran more blood test and everything came back A ok so they ruled out brain tumor, about that time is when Tim Mcgraw brough out live like you were dying and you know what I have lived by that song ever since, Because you never know, that was an eye opener for me, where do I stand now with it all, I am losing my eye sight in my right eye,they have had to put me in stronger prescription every year for that eye, my next step will be wearing two different pairs one for everydays use the other for reading, 5 year later were still dont know what it is, it is still swollen I have gone to another eye dr but he said there is nothing since they have already ran every test possbile. So we wait and we watch it. I dont know what made me think aobut all of this, I dont tell to many people about this, I just got listen to that song a few minutes ago, and everybody should get a chance to live like you were dying it sure makes you look at life a totaly diffrent way.
