Hi CJ

I have just read your posts from beginning to end and have to say a big thank you!!

Thank you for sharing your story and doing it in such a brilliant way that shows the human faces and many shades behind HCV.

You have shown what can be achieved when a mother’s love, drive and pro action is added to a doctor’s crusade to save lives and help people.

Hats off and a massive cheer to you and James Freeman for giving young J the best future possible and for removing the dark cloud of HCV… Bright days ahead for you and young J!

Well done and a huge Hip hip hooray from me !!!
Lots of love and all the best to you.

Who’s good with photoshop? We need a picture of the doc wearing his underpants outside his tights. And a cape. Can’t forget the cape.

Oh yeah Chester!!

It WILL be , wont it!

He will finish just before his 16th birthday in Feb I think?
OH feb. 2nd his his finish date, 2 wks before his birthday, so we’ll have the VL back too…

One day he’ll realise.
think he’s pretty happy now though, he just seems kind of..”nicer”…. hard to explain.

Not as sulky, as lots of 15 year old are.
Which is so good to see.

Cindi; you already know how I feel about J finally clearing the HCV – but I want to add to the celebration here – J is indeed, fortunate to have such a loving mother and compassionate doctor – one day he may more fully understand. For now it is his time to just enjoy being fifteen and embrace life, without the invisible cloud of an illness.

I am delighted for you that J has achieved this freedom you have so long desired..All the best, Girl. Here comes the sun

J is doing so well that he’s going to a party tonight!!
….his first real one. hmy:
I’m a bit worried, he’s not!

His tx is still going without a hitch, he is such a happy kid now.

He’s going on for 8 wks in now, I think.
Not that long to go.

His skin has miraculously got much clearer, he’s got more energy now so actually does stuff other than computer games.
He smiles & laughs a lot now & actually talks quite a bit!

Life’s good

Thanks to Doc James & the people here & the GP4U crowd.
It’s going to be a great 2016, hopefully for every one here.

Thats fantastic news Cindi, it will be interesting over the next few years to hear what he has to say as a kid growing up with Hep c and being cleared at 15. It was brave decision you made that seems to have paid off.

cheers mate
