Don’t bury your head in the sand between the high and low tide watermarks – the world may have changed when you come back up for air.
2 October 2016 at 3:11 am #23439Following on from the aquatic theme:
“Think of considering generics for treatment of HepC as a boat; if you missed it, you may now find you have some swimming to do”.
I have this feeling medicos that waited for the gift from Gilead, may have inadvertently deskilled themselves in the meantime.

For me, taking the HCV generic drugs was the opportunity for a new lease on life. And it worked!
For whomever will read this post: DO NOT WASTE THE OPPORTUNITY TO DOCUMENT YOURSELF ABOUT THE HCV GENERIC DRUGS. You may start with this forum,as it contains a lot of useful information to make a solid opinion about the generic medication for HCV.

Does taking on Big Pharma with generics count under “plan an invasion” ?
Here’s one of my not-a-sonnet sonnets
The Path We Choose
Do not shed a tear for me
For I would not for you
Instead just drink a beer for me
And know well that I knewDreams of flight do not come free
There comes attached a price
And we do not do it blindly
We know we roll the diceBefore you sail into the sky
A sky slow to forgive
Ask am I, afraid to die?
Or just afraid to live?So if you try, to reason why
When fate can seem unjust
We take these risks, not to escape life
But to stop life escaping us
YMMV
14 February 2018 at 10:18 am #27430When tomorrow starts without me
And I’m not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
All filled with tears for me.I wish so much you wouldn’t cry
The way you did today;
While thinking of the many things
We didn’t get to say.I know how much you love me
As much as I love you;
And each time that you think of me,
I know you’ll miss me too.When tomorrow starts without me,
Don’t think we’re far apart
For every time you think of me,
I’m right here in your heart.Alena Meadows
