Ischemia

Ischemia: A decrease in the blood supply to a bodily organ, tissue, or part caused by constriction or obstruction of the blood vessels.

I know that having a long, healthy life is not owed to me or anyone.

I know that I haven’t always taken care of my body as best I could.

I know that the few troubles I’ve had thus far could easily have been much worse.

I know that whatever health troubles I have now pale in comparison of those to come.

Still, I find permanently losing a significant portion of clarity and color accuracy in my left eye (previously my sharp eye, my camera eye) very, very depressing.
