Good news!!!

What great news I was able to give Don after reading an e-mail from his doctor, his 8 week viral load test showed the HepC virus in his blood is undetectable!! The kids were thrilled to hear the news and Don's family was in town visiting so we were able to share the news with them which was so exciting. This medicine regime has changed Don's personality and I feel like I have to be on-guard at all times for a personality change that might come about in the wrong setting. He gets very aggitated and it happens instantly, but being "undie" makes everything we are going through worth the effort. I actually think things have gotten a little better since we received the good news. Don's major complaint is the fatigue. He gets aggravated and tells me it's because his "mind says go but his body says whoa". His shakes help tremendously with the side-effects and we are thankful everyday for that. He has not lost any hair and is not having any dry skin problems which is all good news!! We will continue with what we are doing now for the next 39 weeks as long as the virus remains undetectable, which would be the answer to our prayers.
