    • Close Hepatitis C

      I was diagnosed with hep C type 1 in the summer of 2003 six weeks before my wedding. I got a letter from local health dept. as I had donated blood to the red cross. I was alone when I got the letter and didn't even know what it was. I just knew it sounded scary. I immediately got some library books on hep c. I learned what is was about then, and it sounded more scary. I am hoping to find some help and support from other people who have hep c.
