Have I been a Bad Boy?

A big apology and a huge thank you for all of your thoughtfilled concerns on how I am doing. I have been extremely busy since I started school and have truly had no time to do anything but school - meetings - homework - and just look at my emails.
I haven't even been able to get back to anyone cause of my schedule.

Then in the last month I have been blessed to get into a relationship. and with that relationship comes 3 beautiful children. And in the last week I picked up a job that will be part time. It is something in the art field, somthing that I am going to school for. This is a great opportunity and great practice.Only a little bit of hours each week. Balance is crucial to me. I understand I need it and with that comes rest. It sounds like my plate is full, and it sure is, but it full of good things and the plate is yummy with positive energy taht brings a smile to my soul.

I am doing good iun school. I am so glad that I took the chance to go back. The laying around and doing nothing for my 1st 3 months of treatment was good at the time and needed, but I NEEDED to go back to doing life. I now don't have time to think about how yucky I feel and how tired I am. I just move through it and go on. Laying around all day and doing nothing gave me time to think about how sick I felt and in turn that made me even sicker. That isn't good for the body to be like that.

I am on week 20 of my treatment. I have seen my nurse and she is amazed at my results. Being Genotyope 1b and the amount that my viral load was before treatment, she is amazed at how quickly I responded to the medicine. I AM A NEGATIVE for hep c!! God bless the doctors for coming up with a treatment. I am now at 230 lbs - which means that I have lost a total of 30 pounds since this summer. Its been a healthy loss so that is good. I do get the aches and the pains - the headaches and the tiredness - but I know what to do and I know why I am feeling that way so I just accept it.

I am trying truly to keep in touch, but I have so much other stuff. But I will continue to write and I just want you to all know That I am okay, I do have my days, but I am Living with a smile inside my mind, in my heart and in my soul....
