Welcome To My "HEP C" Life

Hepatitis C is a blood disease that affects the liver. There is a tx that I am now on which is a mixture of "interferon" injections 1x a week and 1200mg in pill form of "Ribavirin" dailly. This is an extreme and rigorous 48 week treatment and I have started september 22nd 2006

Well, Jason, it's been almost a month since you started the Hep C treatment. Today also seems to mark the first time you just didn't feel up to writing about it in your blog. Can I make a suggestion (?)-- and I make it fully understanding that it may NOT be what you want to do. But here goes anyway: How about trying something new in the blog? I think years from now when you look back at this miserable 48-weeks, one thing that MAY be worth remembering will be this journal. You're a great writer.... and I'd like you to think about making this blog more than just a description of how you're feeling. I'd love to read some of your poetry, a short story about something you've done, a look into the future to explain what you're hoping to see. If nothing else, set a goal for the 48th week.... and document how you're reaching it as the days move along. I think you'd get some value from this and WE WOULD TOO! Don't think I don't CARE to hear how you're feeling.... I DO CARE! But I bet after the 48-weeks the blog will fade away. It would be nice if it had cast a wide rainbow (better than a shadow) before then.
