HECTOR ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY

[Dee1956]

Hello, today is Hector's one year anniversary for his liver transplant.  I know he is not feeling well and thought if we all sent him "cards" of good wishes it might cheer him a bit.  While he has not been feeling up to writing I think he may be reading :)
I have a lot of admiration and respect for Hector as well as my undying gratitude for his help through my journey fighting the HCV devil.
From the bottom of my hear.t...or should I say the bottom of my liver :)
Thank you so very much my friend
Happy Anniversary, Happy Birthday, Congratulations, Mazeltoff  all rolled in to one
My very very best to Hector!!

So glad to hear you are finished with treatment and past the one year mark of your transplant!  Here's to an SVR 12 for you!  Merry Christmas or Happy Hannukah, kwanza, Fourth of July or what ever you celebrate!

Wow Howie, I can't believe how much time has passed. Just like the others I am very happy to hear you are clear of HCC! Your strength though all of this is absolutely amazing and inspiring.

I wish you the very best and thank you for all that you do! Take care my friend,

Just back to reading and saw this great thread.  

Best wishes forever, Hector.  May all the your efforts bestow the blessings you deserve.  

I just got my SVR test result before leaving for TGiving.  You and other generous spirits here helped talk me off the ledge in July (so to speak) when the 8 wk. Tx PCR was somewhat muddy.  Your fight dwarfs the ones many of us deal with, but you made time to thoughtfully weigh-in even when you were feeling poorly.  All good to those who fight like hell - wishing you the health that you have worked for - may the days and wks ahead be just right.

Congrats on those milestones. Man what a year it has been for you. Here is to 2015 being the ending of this horrible disease. You have surely been thru the ringer, but you have made it out the other side. Just got my 4-week EOT labs and my numbers are perfect and still UND. I think a total cure for us all is on the horizon. Your knowledge, strength, endurance and encourage inspire us all.

Please know that we have all been thinking about you during Thanksgiving Weekend and hope that you are feeling better.
Rest up and take time for your body to readjust from the meds.  We will all be here when you return.
Best Wishes
