I saw The Doors / Jim Morrison live in the old Boston Garden way way back in the day.
Wow. That trumps my having seen Bob Marley and the Wailers at the Sydney Hordern Pavilion, for sure.

This is good advice, although if possible researching the columnist needs to be done in advance. A real journalist will never let anyone but their editor read or preview what they will publish in advance.
The other thing to bear in mind is that finding a so called ‘progressive’ news outlet is not the only option. Big Pharma pretty much owns the ‘progressive’ media in the US because they run ads with them continually. Most of the ads I see here in the US appear in progressive media outlets, so keep your options open.
There isn’t much conservative media in the Boston area, but you might consider reaching out to them as well. We don’t really care about what we think their politics are.The important thing is to get to media outlets with maximum market share to get the truth out (although I wouldn’t advise going to another journalist until you know whether or not your columnist will go with the story).
You have a very compelling story to tell, and surely someone will want to tell it. Good luck, and thank you!
Congratulations on SVR, Diplomat! That is a very, very big deal!! Time to put HCV in the rear view mirror forever!
Sabrecat…. what a gut punch, brother.
You’re in the right place though. Thank god for that. New treatments are becoming available, and you ‘re a fighter. My money’s on you to whip this.So, my specialist’s office called today. Viral load is way down from the rosy 5,500,000 or so reported earlier this year. 4 week labs show a viral load of 35 (Thirty Five).
Getting printouts is like pulling teeth. I had to call the lab directly today and have the results mailed. Will post here when I get the hard copy in my hand
I checked VL results from thirteen months ago (around the time I was put on a waiting list for a YEAR). Result was much higher then. Over 9 million.

Thanks GT2, Ariel, Matt, Sven, LG – all ya’ll!
Will not hesitate to seek the services of a plastic surgeon if required. MOHS surgeon said nose looked good. Will see how swelling and scarring resolves.
Ugh. Just barfed for the second time since early this afternoon. Both times after taking Arnica tabs for swelling. Reloaded my BP med and swore off Arnica. Don’t think my body likes opiates either. BP med and DAA are essential. The rest i can do without.
