    About Me

    Where are my keys??Brains 12 gone.I found out that I had Hep C when I went in for my 40th year check up I did 4 differantTreatments for it , but they all failed I went from a trace of ciroses to now, (Transplant list) I've had so many blood tests that I dont have any veins left.Now 1/2 the time they miss them I get really bad leg cramps , moody, forgetfull, The stupids ( thats what I call the ammonia level go to high, then I will talk to myself, studder I've seen colors, get the shakes, yell alot, get goofy etc etc etc.)I don't like going out much, I don't want to embarris myself My meld score is 15 so I have a while before a transplant hopfully not like I am happy with the way I am now. The transplant scares the heck out of me I have a very loving wife , 2 great kids I couldn't go through all of this if it was not for their support I can see in my wifes eyes that this is killing her She helps me to remember things like my pills (11 a day now )She gives me The will to do what ever it takes to get better I never drank much Got it from doing drugs and I only did that a few times I used to smoke pot to help me sleep, cant do that any more, Cigarette was the hardest thing to give up, sex life is almost compleatly gone I cant sleep and Mr Happy cant stay awake At least I'm learning to type
