Guest guest Posted December 28, 2003 Report Share Posted December 28, 2003 I'll talk to the doc about B12 or anything else before I start. I do work Mon-Fri so I planned to do shots Friday (maybe 5:30-6:00, as soon as I get home from work ?) I still don't know what or how I'll tell my boss. He's generally such a d...head. I have no intention of telling him how I may have gotten it. I hope I can just say I have a serious liver disease and have to have chemo. I'll tell him I plan to stop treatment if it interferes with my ability to work. I just wonder if I should tell him ahead of time or wait till it's visually evident that something is going on? Faith is the ability to not panic. -----Original Message-----From: Gail Deveaux Sent: Sunday, December 28, 2003 12:17 PMTo: HepatitisCSupportGroupForDummies Subject: Time your shots so that you take it the night of your last day of work for the week.If you work from Mon to Fri then take the shot Friday night and by Sunday you will be ok.Take care girl.I hope your boss is a good head cause sometimes they don't understand the way you would like.Do not tell him how you got it.You don't know.It is none of there business how you got it.Quite a few people got it from transfusions and surgical procedures.Ok.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2003 Report Share Posted December 28, 2003 I already had the thought that brother may be scared for himself. I'll suggest he get checked, but he's a man -- probably won't see a doctor for anything short of near death.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2004 Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 I know it won't hurt him. I've had him put in jail before and he knows now that I had the choice at the time and I told the cop to lock him up. He was very angry for a while when he found out, but understands now why I did it. He knows it's all on him now and actually told me he'd be glad to get rid of the community service this way. I wake up to find the girlfriend in his bed sometimes, too. The new rule is she can't be here after I've gone to bed or when I'm not here. I can't kick him out till he's 18, but he knows I won't hesitate then. I just thought of what to do! I'll change the alarm code and set it when I go to bed! There, THAT'S the ticket!
