That's as bad as being "Gloria from "!!! Oh, do you know how many years I had to live with that one.Gloria

Don, if you don't mind, can I add to this a bit? Not really waiting for an answer!For everyone reading here that has not let us know you are here,I can tell you honestly that we want to know you are with us. No matter what stage of Hep C you are in.. pre-treatment, during treatment or post treatment, or failed treatment, we all want to help. I have gone thru 48 weeks of treatment and come out on the other side. I also have a fairly lengthy medical background. I've been there, done that so to speak and I'm okay now. I've been SVR for 5 years... 5 years. I think I have finally stopped worrying about it ever coming back, and that just happened recently. We are all here to

hold each others hands thru this process. The dragon is a mean one and there is strength in numbers. Let us be your strength when you need it. This is a safe place. I have vented from everything here and gotten so much love and support back, my vents ranged from about being afraid of my lab results to finding out I have to move in what is now 30 days and having no where to move to! Got lots of support and help from every kind person on here. No issue is to big or too small. We want to help, that's what we are here for.Cyber hugs to all of you that we haven't met yet..... Now come on, tell us who you are. You will be accepted with kindness and love. I promise.Teri in Chicago -- Hey, once I move it's gonna be Teri in Cary! From:

Hi ya'll

If you just want to lurk, that is ok, BUT......

If you dont post, we all lose out.

- You may know things that we might not know, or we may not have thought of.

- Your experiances, and thoughts are important so we can all compare what is happening with ourselves.

- If you dont post we also have no chance of being supportive of you, and sharing our thoughts with you.

- Maybe we can tell you something that would improve your life, or just be your friend.

- We wont know how you are doing, and we really do care about your wellbeing.

Between us all, we have tons of information, and support.

- AND -

Knowledge is vital, and our biggest tool in our fight against the HEP, and we need your imput.

No question or comment is too big, too small, or stupid.

You dont have to be alone, shy, or embarrassed.

We have all been there [or might be one day].

As long as we dont fight, all input is valuable to others, and ourselves.

We all need you in so many ways.

So please say hi at least, so we can all say hi back.

Be well my friends, and think good thoughts.

love

don in ks
