Oh what a loss for everybody who is going that they won't get to meet you and Mafalda!!!
I guess that I am the lucky one after all being broke right up here in CT!!!!!!!! :)
I am also sorry I am gong to miss it. We are leaving Ct on the 15th of October and should be in Florida by the 20th. We are taking a slow drive, since I can't drive for too long these days.
If you ever do it again I will try and come if it is during he winter. In the meanwhile, we are having dinner with nygirl next week, so we will raise a glass of water to you - LOL.
God I wanna come! I've never even heard of Titusville or I'd figure out some way to stow myself inside somebody's suitcase or something! WAAAAAAA if there was ANY way I could afford it my friend - know that I would be there.
God I HATE being broke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm with you on the South Florida feeling. This is probably why I haven't been able to bite the bullet and get to see Dr. Schiff. That and the drive down there. I am connected in at Mayo. I may eventually get in to see Dr. Nelson at Gainesville, but I've had not success at getting them to return phone calls or follow-up. My next step, will be to see if my regular doctor will just contact them for me. I'm not going to worry about it until probably late fall or after the holidays. Mostly because I don't really feel like treating and/or being on treatment during the holidays. I've gotten burned out on treatments and especially since they've never worked on me. If I do anything, it will probably be some sort of low dose maintenance.

hello there, just wanted to check in on how to reach dr. nelson, still can't find him on the web site. I will be moving back to ocala area soon and currently am a patient and University of Miami. I really like my docs. but i don't care much for south florida..........I have been on tx twice, peg and infergen..........still didn't clear but gave my liver a rest............
I am also driving from Ocala and have no problem giving anyone a ride (if ya ride on the back of my Harley?}) Kidding, doubt I'll be taking that 2 weeks after tx starts!
The only concern is , like SJL, I will be just starting tx and won't know for sure I'll go until a couple days before, as per if I am up to it. The offers there just maybe have a back up plan? (hard planning with this stuff, aye?!)
SJL, we're tx-ing at @ same time and same place, Shands. Would you mind sharing some info. with me? LL
