Music
I love *classic* rock and roll (60's and 70's) but I enjoy all kinds of music! Classical is very relaxing and I even like some Opera and Country songs! :-)

Grey's Anatomy, House, ER, CSI, American Idol, Law and Order, Criminal Minds, NCIS, Medium, and even a few soap operas.
Books
I don't read as much as I used to but am thoroughly enjoying Christopher Kennedy Lawford's book: Symptoms of Withdrawal: A Memoir of Snapshots and Redemption It is fascinating!

ANYONE who advocates for Hepatitis C! Also anyone who advocates for any disease or circumstance that affects their life as well as the lives of others :-)
On May 19, 2008 the World learned that ONE IN TWELVE people on this planet have some form of Hepatitis. Pretty astonishing!
GET TESTED for Hepatitis C! Get Vaccinated for Hepatitis A and B!
I was diagnosed with Hepatitis C in June 1997 in Glenwood Springs, Colorado and since that time I have turned my life over to educating and advocating wherever I can for Hepatitis C. Treatment failed me in 1999. I do have cirrhosis.
You should be tested for Hepatitis C if you:
*Received blood, blood products, or an organ transplant prior to 1992
*Ever shared drug paraphernalia
*Ever been stuck by a used blood needle
*Had a tattoo or body piercing
*Been on kidney dialysis
*Had sexual activity that involved contact with blood
*Had a vaccination with a pneumatic jet gun injector
*Are a veteran (especially Viet Nam)
*Shared personal care items with other people (razors, toothbrushes, nail clippers, etc.)
*Work as a first responder (EMT, fireman, policeman, etc.) or in the health care field (Doctor, Nurse, etc.)
*Been incarcerated
*About 5% of children born to HCV+ mothers
Hepatitis C patients outnumber HIV patients FIVE TO ONE! Please help get some badly needed funding!
