A Set Back..

..today we found out that my dear husband has relapsed. His blood tests show he is again positive for Hepatitis C. 

When the doctor delivered the news, an echo of gasps cut through the silence, followed by our down cast eyes.  Don was a rock.  We were both hugely disappointed but it only took us a short time to reposition our feet and take a tighter grip of the situation.  No one has knocked the Lord off of His throne.  He is still in control and I have not lost sight of hope.  If you know us, you know news like this just makes us bite down harder and never let go...we are a pretty good team - Don and I.!!

So sorry to hear this :( I watched my grandfather battle Hep C, and I know how tough it is. Good thoughts for y'all.

Oh, no... I'm so sorry. I'm sure you will tell us the next move for treatment. I honestly knew nothing about this illness and I'm horrified by the difficulty of curing it. Like cancer, except not!

Best wishes for a COMPLETE recovery to Don and strength for both of you.
