I've just had the call...(Hepatitis C (Hep C) HCV Blog)

Thursday 28 January 2010


Hi Everyone,

Well, I've just had the 'THE CALL' from St.Jimmy's asking me to make my way over for the Operation!

I can't begin to tell you what I'm feeling right now or how much my hands are trembling as I'm trying to write....

The only way I can best describe this is like the first time I made love to my wife, I know everything feels right about it but I'm so nervous in case it all goes wrong.

I know it all went so well the last time so heres hoping it will do again.

If you get a mo, spare me a thought and I'll get Mandy to keep you posted in a couple of days.

Keep well everyone .... Ian

Look at that "pasty face" is not that just the best?
We have different scars I noticed.
The Americans have a scar that is shaped like a peace sign, without the circle.
Mine is a reverse L shape.I'll send you a pic soon.
Well my liver brother,"welcome to life again"
All the best to You & Mandy.
Congratulations,
Shane.
