You are doing an amazing job! Those of you doing 48 weeks of treatment are such an inspiration. I am finding 24 weeks to be way to long....but like you...I refuse to stop a day early so I know I gave it my best shot. You are almost to the finish line!

Hi JoAnne,

I'm back after the big move, and thrilled you're getting so close to the end. It's worth it as I'm getting better every day. Go girl!

continuing to feel better everyday. Haven't needed a nap in over week now!!

Stay strong Lady!!!

I am supposed to start on the 15th, but first I am going to discuss about the Gilead drugs that may be available in 2014 here. I guess it all depends if the Netherlands will be buying them? If not, will be in a couple of weeks. I am not looking forward to it, but living long term with this beast is not an option for me, I want to have a baby! I hope you feel better after your nap! :*

Yes, stay strong Joanne!  You have been so strong through this last year. I think that anything we do that is coming to an end gets harder at the end. We know we are so close and want to be done, that even a short period of time seems like years away.  Like Lisa said, it is much easier for me to say since I am not in your shoes, but you have come a long way. This will be over before you know it!!!!!

Stay strong, you are doing really well. I know it is easy for me to say as I have not even started treatment, but I can offer you a cyber hug! In 21 days you will think how fast these days passed. In one year from now you will remember how you fought and defeated the beast. Time will pass and this will be a memory in the future. Keep strong and keep fighting. :*

My right eye is itching and burning. Will need to see a doctor as it's getting worse.

My nerves are edgy. So tired!

20 days left and shots and RIBA OVER!

I think 20 days seems far far away:(

i feel like I am fried! Time out coming soon

these last weeks are hard

Thanks Lisa! I refuse to quit a day early!
I will know no matter what, I gave it a
100 percent chance. The tx didn't work 12 years ago and
They took me off it. I am overjoyed its working.
Just look like a rag doll:)
When u going to join the club??
