I want to say…. you are so awesome! I came here just a short time ago and started reading your journey, I am incredibly impressed at the fortitude you showed and the courage to move through the HCV maze. You have also gave me strength to continue my journey.
I hope your journey from here out has prepared you to take advantage of all the opportunities coming your way, it is then that you will find luck too.
In good health & congratulations forever!
