Probably gave her blood thinners and that was able to stimulate the optic nerves.

Wow, that sounds like such a cynical statement. Don't you think the doctors would have thought about that? I put this story up as a bit of good news among all the negative stuff we hear every day. A little chance to remember that miracles sometimes happen.

I don't see at all how what I said is cynical. I'm glad she got her sight back.

There is ALOT going on in medicine and nutrition now. We're gonna see alot of the conventional wisdom tossed onto the trashheap.

Some scientists measured the amount of vitamin C in a 150 pound goat. They figured the goat manufactured in it's body 13 thousand milligrams of vitamin C a day.

So why does a goat need 225 times the US RDA of vitamin C?

See what I mean?

I think you can rest assured that the medical research community will be all over this case. Out-of-the-ordinary recoveries are often a precursor to breakthrough research.

I misinterpreted your comment. It can be hard to read a person's tone from text, sometimes, sorry.
I thought you were someone trying to minimize the miracle with a quick explanation.

Can you get the vitamin c from eating the meat of a goat? Thats pretty funny because of all the vegetarians who say meat is so bad all the time. More vitamin c in a goat chop than orange juice!!! LoL

What kind of meds did they put you on? It might be interesting to see if some derivative comes out with that purpose (improving deteriorating vision) in mind.

'Oh.' I said to [her husband] Eric, 'You've got older haven't you?'

Now she's out looking for a younger man.

Call it what is is. A miracle from God, and only God. Praise Him for it.
