He looked in the mirror, a who new personal his reflection. He lost 76 pounds due to his cirrhosis. Staying sober but always hungry not able to eat watching his sodium intake.
The diet helped with his health. Did all the LA requirements then passed off to Mayo Clinic. Now he's waiting for the call so that he could get the transplant recieve a new liver.
Waiting was driving him crazy, he gave it to God. The waiting process drove him crazy. He grew impatient trying to maintain his frustration. He couldn't hide it you could see the anger and his emotions became frantic within.
Watching what he ate, feeling limited some days his body was strong other days he felt weak. Working because he was able to do so. While others collect money to be home. He needed to be doing something or he'd go crazy thinking about it.
His eyes yellow they became the new norm. His hair wasn't full he hoped after the procedure it might grow back fully. Writing about this encounter, the experience. hoping others would understand.
He was always an outcast or socially awkward at he wanted was to be normal. Everything he did was outside of the box. He'd rather be on the outside looking in than boxed in being on the inside and miserable.
