Considering selling everything and leaving the country....your daughter sounds like my eldest son...gave him everything I could.....appreciates NOTHING!! To see my youngest behaving that way....my cousin's son behaving that way? I'm tired....sometimes we give so much, we give all....what's left? Unhappiness & bitter regrets!! Maybe we should NOT feel that way about our kids.....but to know they hate me? I already see with my eldest what happens when kids grow up hating the one who cares for them. Ready to give up.....whatever happens, happens.....They will be fine....Holes in the walls is off the hook!! I can go somewhere, be anonymous...and restart my life...yep!

Close Hepatitis C
Hello everyone! I was diagnosed with Hep C in 2000 after many months of illness and testing. My 1st biopsy came back Gen 2b, 465,000 vl with 2/2.5, and abnormally high enzymes. My second blood test came back 6 ml vl, etc. in 2004. My third tests in 2007 came back 3ml vl, 0/0, all enzymes in the Normal Healthy range, but gen. 1a, then 2nd gen test came back 1a also. Also, my white blood cell count was normal for the first time in about 25 years. The only thing I have done is taken a lot of liver/virus herbs and chiropractic. For the first 2 years I was really ill, extreme tiredness, nausea, chronic depression, etc. However, besides our usual Hep C problems, my Dr. still wants me to start chemo. even though I am at 0/0 now. I hesitate to do this after reading about all the side affects and I have been plagued my whole life with debilitating depression, though it seems better now. And, I now hesitate to do chemo. because of the lessor 'cure' rate for 1a - ever how that changed from 2b. Any advice would help. That about sums it up - sort of.
