Hi Patty, good to see you here, I`m glad you`ve joined us!  Partners and supporters are always welcome here, and getting prepared for what is ahead for you both is very sensible.  I expect reading some of our posts must seem quite scary to you right now, and it`s true that treatment can be hard going at times, but try not to get too worried..it is certainly do-able and so worth while in the end. 

Here`s an article you might find useful to read, if you scroll down there`s a section called `The HCV Patient During Treatment`...

Having you along for the journey is going to be such a help for Jeannie, good support is so valuable and can make all the difference.  Do keep in touch and feel free to ask any questions, we`re here to help!  smile  ~ Jill

Hi everyone,

Here to support my partner AzHiGirl. Learning a lot from the comments I've read. So thankful for all your kindness, experience and support. I'm feeling kinda scared. Not sure what to expect. I want to be as supportive as possible.
