Thank you, karma! You just lifted my spirits with this lady's story...and it's your story as well, since you care for her. Wow! I really admire those in the Home Health Care business. It's definitely a challenging position and I'm sure a rewarding one when you have patients' like the one you just described.

And it's also a relief to know that I can live a long life if I am diagnosed with Lupus, but the fact of the matter is I do have Hep C and don't know what effect that will have on my body in the near future either, or my mortality, for that matter. I understand there is now some sort of supressive therapy for Hep C now. A close friend of mine is going on it. It's supposed to help stop/slow the progression of the disease. I'm not so sure my doc would even be willing to put me on that as I had such a difficult time with the treatments I underwent in 2002.

At any rate, thank you so much for your inspirational feedback. It has given me some comfort and relief. I will keep you updated on the status, which I really won't know anything until sometime in March. Meanwhile, keeping my fingers crossed!

Thanks again!
