Day 260, My Day of Birth.
Day 260 if my sobriety.
Over 37 weeks of not having a drop to drink.
Seems a lot longer than that.
Seems like an entirely different life.
Sobriety seems normal now.
Today is also my 32nd birthday.
Past birthday routine: Get drunk.
Way drunk. Blackout drunk. Regretful drunk.
This year is going to be so different.
Bought a new kayak.
Going to run my first 5k.
Celebrating my life.
Celebrating still being alive.
32 years old.
I'm told I have about two more years left.
I accept that, but I'm not dying until I'm done living, and right now, I'm just getting the living started.

Wow, Happy Birthday!!! You have accomplished so much being sober. You look amazingly healthy and happy too. Glad you can celebrate with a clear mind.
I honestly see so many miracles in medicine, that I don't think you should feel like you have to live with a time stamp on your life. We never know what will happen to any of us. I said good bye to my dad on life support a few years ago, and he proved the docs wrong and came out of it and is going strong in his 70s. Live every day and enjoy every day. You are making healthy choices and your mind is clear. Get in some hikes with that hiking dog buddy this weekend to celebrate.

You have come way to far to give into that AV for ANY reason. Good or bad. It probably wouldn't hurt to check in with the doc and see where you are at anyway. I would think they would want to be following up routinely so they can monitor your labs etc?
