In the midst of all my health issues, they finally labeled me with a diagnosis. It could have been worse so I am trying not to whine much. However, because of the current liver damage and potential for more, I have been instructed to refrain from alcohol.
Sigh....
Don't get me wrong, I am not an alcoholic and they are quick to say alcohol did not cause the damage, but let's not add fuel to the fire.
This really stinks, but I try to do the glass half full thing and know that they could have said "you have x amount of years to live". Nothing that tragic happened so I should be thankful. And I am.
Sad I am as well though. I mourn not just the liquid but the fun that comes with sharing a drink with friends and loved ones.
He said one glass on special occasions. I think that it a challenge...to make every moment as special as can be.

Dang! We never had that drink did we?
We'll always have special occassions or Paris?
just drink coke in a small glass, they'll think it rum & coke and then you can be in the middle of the party again.
Good idea. I figure I will become the best person to party with - always the designated driver.
And that is okay with me.
But did the doctor say anything about recreational drugs? Just kidding. Sort of. Does Vicodin count?
I told my husband my last resort was weed, but then there are those damn munchies....I can't win.
