ah gee, Denise, this is so wonderful for me to come home to...way, way, WAY to go.

This is dream news...I gotta hit the sack now but boy, does this make me happy. :)

You know, all of us in here really feel the up of such great results.

So sleep well...you really showed that virus the door and kicked it out fast and hard.

Your daughter is so young and in some ways, you're doing this for her, too, so stick with it to the end.

Love ya, gal, and keep taking those meds with food and guzzling that water.

How do you eat a dragon? -One bite at a time and with ketchup! HA! I bequeath my dragon slaying sword to you and offer up a Howard Dean girlie scream in your honor! YYYYEEEAAAGGGHHH! Remember the numbers (or the lack of) when week #12 (halfway point) slides by...You may be tired, cranky, and as hairless as a baby hamster (just kidding about the hair), but you will be winning!!!! Keep an eye on your labs for hemolytic anemia, and if your body weight drops under 160 lbs, or more than 10 lbs if you are already less, then ask about getting your riba and interferon adjusted according to your weight. Even 200mg and 20 mcg sometimes makes a difference in finishing the race...I wish you well! You are on your way!!!:) ~Melinda
