At the age of 16, Josie Paille suddenly noticed strange expressions in her left eye, she saw everything very dimly. When she went to the hospital to check, the doctor determined that she had a venous blockage due to a blood clot that affected her vision. Gradually, her left eye gradually blurred and became completely blind.
Accepting her illness, even though it was a huge shock, but Josie was still very strong and optimistic. Anyway, she still has one right eye to see, she can still live and study normally, just need to get used to it a little, it is not difficult anymore.
Josie shared: “If I didn’t tell anyone, no one would know that one of my eyes is blind.”
Many years have passed, little Josie is now grown up, married, giving birth to healthy children and living a very happy life. But the illness did not spare Josie. By the age of 44, Josie began to see problems in her right eye again.
Feeling bad, she immediately went to the hospital to check and heard the doctor reported that lightning had struck: the same condition had gradually spread to her right eye, Josie had to prepare mentally to be completely blind in a short time.
This time, Josie became completely devastated, unable to accept this terrible reality. What would life be like when she lost her sight?
What difficulties did she face? She will never see the face of her husband and beloved children again…
This sad news also made Josie’s family sink into dark grief. Then her brother Peter had an idea. “I really don’t know what to do to make Josie feel better,” he said . I think if it is really going to go blind, then it should see the world one last time in the most special and memorable way. So I asked him to go skydiving.”
Josie has little interest in this offer, but stands at Peter’s persuasive insistence. Josie had to bet a game, if she called home and her father answered, she would have to follow her brother’s suggestion.
She was sure of victory because she knew that day her father would go into town. Unexpectedly, everything was like an irresistible arrangement, Josie’s father changed his plans so he stayed at home and took her call. Josie finally had to go skydiving like a destiny…
Spent 4 hours learning skydiving maneuvers and safety rules. Josie climbed into the plane with a heavy mood full of fear.
Although there was an expert skydiver who would be beside her to make the jump, but standing in front of such a vast sky and such a terrible height, it was difficult to keep calm. Falling at a speed of 200 km/h, she felt dizzy, nauseous, her heart turned upside down… She believed she was going to die.
Then suddenly Josie felt pain in her eyes. Pop, an explosion rang in my head. Her mind was dizzy, the pain was unprecedented.
Fortunately, only 5 seconds later, everything calmed down. When the parachute opened, Josie had a pleasant, relaxed feeling running through her body.
She calmed down, trying to take a closer look at her surroundings, trying to remember this world in her head one last time. Perhaps she had no regrets, she had wonderful moments to remember for the rest of her life.
A miracle happened the next morning. Josie woke up in utter amazement, she could see everything clearly.
Her vision seems to have been restored, not only in one but both eyes. Unbelievably, she covered her right eye and then her left eye, over and over again to make sure this wasn’t a dream.
After going to the doctor, the doctors were surprised and confirmed that the blood clots in her eye had disappeared. They believe that the air pressure when jumping out of the plane broke up Josie’s blood clots and thus her vision was miraculously restored to full.
The incident was like a coincidence, a rare luck for Josie, but in her heart she thanked and always believed that it was a miracle, everything seemed to have been arranged skillfully.
Josie’s story is also an example to help people believe more in the positive things in life, always love life and live happily and fully, no matter what, you will never regret hate.
