HELP! is dedicated to public awareness about hepatitis C and organ donation; educating and providing support services to liver patients and their families; and counseling addicts with liver disease who want recovery.
1 in 12 people worldwide are living with chronic hepatitis B or C - about 600 million people - far more than those infected with HIV or any cancer!
Because viral hepatitis can silently - without symptoms - lead to life-threatening liver failure, the majority of those infected are unaware.
World Hepatitis Day - May 19th - is a global effort to shine a light on this under-reported public health threat.

KNOW THE ENEMY - GET TESTED - GET TREATED
The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the most common blood-borne virus in the United States -- many times more widespread than HIV/AIDS.
HCV can silently damage the liver over decades, often without obvious symptoms until the liver is damaged beyond the window of opportunity for treatment.
Deaths from hepatitis C are expected to triple in the next 5-10 years, and most people don't yet know they're infected!

Hello,
While I'm trying to help my brother get through the system with his hep c and cirrhosis in California, which has him now waiting yet another month for a second MRI, I have another project I am sharing with all of my networks. I hope you don't mind.
I'm trying to take advantage of this amazing online community
to truly change the world in a profound and tangible way
for five children and the people who love them.
I invite you to join me in helping Operation Smile provide cleft palate & cleft lip surgeries to children around the world.
Perhaps you are in the position to spare $1, $5 or $20...
$240 funds one surgery.
I've already donated enough for one child's surgery, and my goal is to raise $1200 for five children.
Donations can be made by credit card, PayPal or check, & all donations are completely tax deductible.
May is the 4th official WorldWide Hepatitis Awareness Month! Talk about Hep C with people. -- Use it as a conversation topic -- bring it up whenever you have the opportunity. Be Aware! AND Make A Difference!
Thanks for the add- its great to know that as i begin to play "slay the dragon" that there are people to talk to that understand and dont discriminate- thank you!
Come check out the new site for anonymousspace! We are still transferring a bunch of images from anonymousspace so be patient if you are looking for specific images that were on from anonymousspace but it is shaping up nicely! We are slowly but surly getting everything back on the new site. This site is also much social, easier to use, and browswe images on. Come join, upload, share and get you some artwork for your pages for myspace, facebook and yearbook and comments for your friends. We would love to have you!
I promise you the same thing won't happen with this site that did with anonymousspace if that is what you are worried about with decorating your pages with these graphics. This is independent so it's a totally different deal so no worries ya'll, it won't crash and burn and get shut off like AS did. Love ya'll!
May you listen to your longing to be free. May the frames of your belonging be large enough for the dreams of your soul. May you arise each day with a voice of blessing whispering in your heart...something good is going to happen to you. May you find harmony between your soul and your life. May the mansion of your soul never become a haunted place. May you know the eternal longing that lies at the heart of time. May there be kindness in your gaze when you look within. May you never place walls between the light and yourself. May you be set free from the prisons of guilt, fear, disappointment and despair. May you allow the wild beauty of the invisible world to gather you, mind you, and embrace you in belonging. ~John O'Donahoe
As the magic of the season finds us once again, lights and gifts of love lift our spirits. We find the greatest gift of all is love. May we find peace on earth and good will to all! Let love and joy warm your heart. And blessings from on high fill your home and continue throughout the coming year.
Friends are companions that accept each other for who they are. Cherished when our spirit needs a lift and turning to each other. Partners in wonder, beauty, grace, and delight we bring to one another. Our friendship is a gift of love, making the world we live in a better happier place. I am thankful to have you as my friend.
We may have realized the miracle of organ donation in our own family but our fight for others to realize this gift is far from over. In order to further raise awareness for Organ and Tissue Donation, I pray you will take the time to visit http://www. angelcove. us and show your support to all of those that have realized the miracle, are still waiting for their miracle, and those that were the miracle!
