HepC
and Me...The Incredible Journey!
WE CRY
We cry for our children, our lovers, our parents, and ourselves.
We cry in shame because we feel no right to cry,
and we cry in peace because we feel it's time we did cry.
We cry for the World. Yet we think we cry alone.
We feel that no one hears, that there is no one listening.
And we must all listen now.
We must hold the crying people's hand, and minister to them tenderly...
or they will turn...
into a monster who will go unheard no longer.
Inspired by: Marianne Williamson - A Woman's Worth
Since my own diagnosis in April 2008 it has become my deepest desire to create Global Public Awareness and to educate mankind about Hepatitis C. I truly believe that in order to raise awareness, we, the people who do know that we have it, must bypass the stigma, and lose the embarrassment, in order to help more people that do not as yet know that they are infected. We are the ones who have the knowledge, and it must be shared. It will take too long to rid ourselves of the stigma, and in BC alone there are upwards of 300 new cases every day. I beseech every one of you, to stand beside me in this campaign to educate the public. We need you to be strong and to be brave. We need your voices, and we need your faces, as I cannot do this alone.
