Hi Peter. Good to here from you. Well, all is well here so far, just waiting for my appointment. Not a whole lot to say right now. I'm on lunch break. So i'll update you Thursday or Friday, until then, have a good one and thanks for the kind words.
HI Tina, it's Sunday afternoon in Scotland and the clocks are now going back an hour to embrace the winter. Glasgow winters used to be harsh and the cold wind insisting itself from over the Irish Sea felt keenly but over the last wee while winters h…
Hi Peter. actually i was responding because finally i was getting some words that are giving me hope. You'll have to excuse me, sometimes i get over excited about things and tend to overdo it. Again, i was just happy to here those encouraging words.…

It depends what stage your doctor says you are at. For example if you have cirrhosis caused by fibrosis and its scattered and not too severe this i…
